<Li> chien: (literally "dog"), the buzzing bridge </Li> <Li> tirant: a small peg set in the instrument's tailpiece that is used to control the sensitivity of the buzzing bridge </Li> <P> According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the mid 18th century origin of the term hurdy - gurdy is onomatopoeic in origin, after the repetitive warble in pitch that characterizes instruments with solid wooden wheels that have warped due to changes in humidity or after the sound of the buzzing - bridge . Alternately, the term is thought to come from the Scottish and northern English term for uproar or disorder, hirdy - girdy or from hurly - burly, an old English term for noise or commotion . The instrument is sometimes more descriptively called a wheel fiddle in English, but this term is rarely used among players of the instrument . Another possible derivation is from the Hungarian "hegedűs" (Slovenian variant "hrgadus") meaning a fiddle . </P> <P> In France, the instrument is known as vielle à roue (wheel fiddle) or simply vielle (even though there is another instrument with this name), while in the French - speaking regions of Belgium it is also known in local dialects as vièrlerète / vièrlète or tiesse di dj'va (' horse's head'). The Flemings and the Dutch call it a draailier, which is similar to its German name, Drehleier . An alternate German name, Bauernleier, means "peasant's lyre". In Italy, it is called the ghironda or lira tedesca while in Spain, it is a zanfona in Galicia, zanfoña in Zamora, rabil in Asturias and viola de roda in Catalonia . In the Basque language, it is known as a zarrabete . In Portugal, it is called sanfona . </P>
