brindled ox; spotted cow
Refers to a cow or ox with a brindled or spotted coat pattern. The term is somewhat specific and may be encountered in agricultural or descriptive contexts.
There were several brindled oxen in the pasture.
That spotted cow has a beautiful pattern, doesn't it?
Compound of 斑 (まだら, 'spots, mottled') and 牛 (うし, 'cow, ox'). The exact historical derivation is uncertain, but the word transparently describes a cow with a spotted or brindled coat.
