'Bougwan' is a term meaning master in African. In general terms it is used when a dieing woman of inferior caste is in a cave (mortally wounded by an old witch doctor) and wishes to confess her undieing love for a adventurous English gentleman. The word has fallen out of fashion since the decline of Empire, and indeed it is difficult to see under what circumstances it would today be used.
