Etymology

[edit]

Attested since ca. 1706. Borrowed from Polish sztych directly and/or through Old Ruthenian штыхъ (štyx, sharp point), even though the difference in Auslaut seems unexplained.

Compare natively formed Czech bodák (akin to бода́ть (bodátʹ), note бо́день (bódenʹ), боде́ц (bodéc), listed by Dahl).
