From Middle Radestrian strêht, strêcatt, from Old Radestrian scrêhtt, inherited from Proto-Radic *scêrktht (“to condemn, to convict”), from Proto-Hirdic *skɛ̄́skət, from Proto-Laenkean *skæjskætʼ-. The radical stem has been levelled with the raised stem. Doublet of strjảt, which was interchangeable with strjácat until the Early Modern Radestrian period.
