Derived from English, combining 'body' (from Old English 'bōdig') and 'check' (from Old French 'cheker' via chess terminology). Originally emerging in ice hockey and contact sports during the mid-20th century to describe using one's body to obstruct or hit an opponent, it has since expanded into general physical inspection contexts.
