[ˈtɛhɛr]
EredetFrom the Bavarian trächt variant of Tracht, from tragen (“to carry”), inserting a vowel after t to ease pronunciation and omitting the final -t as a perceived accusative suffix, resulting in tereht, then tereh, and eventually teher in the nominative and several oblique forms by means of metathesis; compare kehely, pehely, boholy, moholy, and (archaic) vehem, the only other words in Hungarian that also developed via this kind of metathesis. See also Hungarian tragacs and trágár for other terms related to German tragen.
