BUCOLIC

adjective, of or relating to shepherds or herdsmen, pastoral, relating to or typical of rural life.

While sitting in rush hour traffic, CeCe often daydreamed about living in a little house in a quiet bucolic setting with horses.

We get "bucolic" from the Latin word bucolic, which is ultimately from the Greek word boukolos, meaning "nowhere." When "bucolic" was first used in English in the early 17th century, it meant pastoral" in a narrow sense---that is, it referred to things related to shepherds or herdsmen and in particular to pastoral poetry. Later in the 19th century, it was applied more broadly to things rural or rustic. "Bucolic" has also been occasionally used as a noun meaning "a pastoral poem" or "a bucolic person."
