Etymology

From north-eastern Middle High German rase, probably from Middle Low German wrāse (“sod, turf”), though the two could also be cognate forms. Further origin presumably a variant of Middle Low German wāse, from Proto-Germanic *wasô, *waisǭ (“slime, muck”) which has been inherited as German Wasen.[1] The intermitting r might be due to influence from dialectal forms of Brodem (“haze, fume”), notably Bratten, Wraten, Frādem, Frātem, Frāsem.[2]
