Where this word comes from
From Middle High German triegen, from Old High German triugan, triogan, from Proto-West Germanic *dreugan. The expected form is earlier modern German triegen, the vocalism -ü- being due to influence by lügen (“to lie, to tell lies”), itself originally liegen and thus a rhyming word.
