Where this word comes from
Borrowed from Irish srath and Scottish Gaelic srath (“wide, flat river valley, strath; floor of river valley; river meadow”), both from Old Irish srath (“grass, sward; river valley; floor of river valley; river meadow”), from Proto-Celtic *stratos (“valley”), from Proto-Indo-European *str̥h₃tós (“spread; stretched”, adjective), from *sterh₃- (“to extend, spread, stretch out”). The meaning was likely influenced by a Cumbric/Pictish cognate; compare Welsh ystrad. Doublet of stratus.
