Etymology

From cow + -like.

Adjective

cowlike (comparative more cowlike, superlative most cowlike)

  1. Resembling or characteristic of a cow.
    • 1987, Douglas Adams, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, Simon & Schuster, page 102:
      He was one of those dangerous people who are soft, squidgy and cowlike provided they have what they want. And because he had always had what he wanted, and had seemed easily pleased with it, it had never occurred to anybody that he was anything other than soft, squidgy and cowlike.
