It's probably a bit too broad a word to lead with.

  Comments:
In American English at least, "bush" is a more common word for this than thicket, coppice, or brushwood. That seems to be born out by the example sentences in Tatoeba, and "bush" appears as a translation in many of the other JE dictionaries referenced 
by Weblio.
