Anagrams edit
Luxembourgish edit
Etymology edit
From a regionally highly restricted Late Middle High German trūsch (attested 1490 in the Saarland). Probably the same word as Dutch tros (“bunch of grapes”) with a dialectal variant truis, which latter is in line with the Luxembourgish form. Possibly borrowed from Old French trusse, trousse (“bunch, bundle”), which is, however, usually said of things tied together rather than plants growing in bunches. Therefore alternatively thought to be an old Germanic word and then comparable with Old English trūs (“fallen-off leaves and twigs”), Old Norse tros (“brittle branch”).
