bruche
Central Franconian edit
Alternative forms edit
Etymology edit
From Old High German brūhhan, from Proto-Germanic *brūkaną.
The past tense forms broht, brooch (both with the open vowel /ɔː/) were doubtless formed by analogy with moht, mooch, from mugge (“may”). It is not ruled out, however, that they are alterations of older strong forms.
