A Scottish dialect word for a cow; a variant or diminutive form of cow used in regional speech.
From 'cow' (Old English 'cu') with a Scottish diminutive or familiar suffix '-ie' or '-y'. Common in Scots dialect for affectionate or familiar terms.
Scottish dialect preserves diminutive '-ie' endings that show affection or familiarity—'cowdie' suggests a fondness for the animal that standard 'cow' doesn't capture!
