[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Middle High German rūch, from Old High German rūh, from Proto-Germanic *rūhwaz. Though etymologically justified, the silent h was abolished in 1996 because rauh was the only word in which it was used after the diphthong -au-. Cognate with Dutch ruig and ruw, English rough (which see).
Pronunciation
[edit]Adjective
[edit]rau (strong nominative masculine singular rauer, comparative rauer, superlative am rauesten or am rausten)
- rough
- 2010, Der Spiegel[1], number 26/2010, page 125:
- Tiere, die in rauem Klima leben, sind oft klüger als ihre Artgenossen aus gemäßigten Breiten, das legen verschiedene Studien nahe.
- Several studies suggest that animals which live in rough climates are often smarter than members of the same species from moderate latitudes.
Usage notes
[edit]- The spelling rau has been the prescribed spelling since the German spelling reform of 1996 (the Rechtschreibreform). In the affected areas, the previous spelling (rauh) is now less common, and may be regarded as a misspelling.
