Proto-Germanic
Etymology
Probably originally *streuganą, with -k- due to influence from the iterative *strukkōną, from a Proto-Indo-European *strewgʰ- (“to stroke, shave”). Related to Proto-Slavic *strъgati (“to scrape”), Lithuanian strùgas (“short, cropped”).[1] Compare also *strīkaną (“to stroke”), which is apparently unrelated, despite strikingly similar phonetics and semantics.
