xương xẩu
/ˈbəʊni//ˈbəʊni/The word "bony" has its origins in the Old English word "bān", which means "bone". This word is also related to the Proto-Germanic word "*bainiz", which is also the source of the Modern English word "bone". The word "bony" has been used as an adjective to describe something that is characterized by bones, such as a bony structure or a bony appearance, since at least the 14th century. In the 16th century, the word took on a new meaning, describing something that is thin and gaunt, as if it were composed of bones. This sense of the word is still widely used today.
