Etymology
1. From Middle High German rāche, from Old High German rāhha, from Proto-West Germanic *wrāku, from Proto-Germanic *wrēkō (“persecution, revenge”), from Proto-Indo-European *wreg- (“to drive”).
2. Cognate with archaic English wreak (“revenge”). The irregular short vowel in modern German is due to the inherited short vowel in the verb rächen, reinforced by a spelling pronunciation among Low German speakers (who based on their Middle Low German wrāke could not know whether the High German vowel should be long or short; compare the reverse development in Lache).

wreak'.
