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