The answer

COACH

What coach means

A person who trains and instructs athletes or a team in a sport, or a large bus designed for long-distance travel.

Where the word comes from

Coach comes from the Hungarian town of Kocs, famous in the 15th century for building sturdy horse-drawn carriages. The word "kocsi" (a carriage from Kocs) passed into German as "kutsche," then into French as "coche," and finally into English as "coach." Later, the term extended to mean a trainer or instructor, since coaches guided people just as carriage drivers guided horses.
