Example: "I was living at Gray's Inn in those days, and we stravaged up Gray's Inn Road on one of those queer, unscientific explorations of the odd corners of London in which I have always delighted." — From Arthur Machen's 1922 novella The House of Souls
Thoughts: Huh, this definitely sounded like a made-up word, but I think it's interesting and I originally pronounced it as "strah-vuhg", going off of "ravage", but its actual pronunciation is pretty cool. It's really fascinating how some words work, y'know?
