Luxembourgish
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Doublet of Stréch (“stroke”), which see. Strach is the regular Luxembourgish form, while Stréch is expected in the plural (see the notes at Stach). Other nouns of this class also show a tendency to generalize the higher vowel (e.g. Schratt, Stach, Strack). This has several reasons including the influence of adjacent dialects and Standard German. In the case of Strach/Stréch, there was a semantic split and the native form was restricted to a rural context.
