请教词源学角度讲解stride这个词

好像那个也不容易记,直接按声音记吧,stride,”死拽的“,就是有人死命地拽着你走,所以就很大步咯.
语源
– ORIGIN Old English
stride (noun) '‘single long step,’' strīdan (verb) '‘stand or walk with the legs wide apart,’'
probably from a Germanic base meaning '‘strive, quarrel’'; related to Dutch
strijden '‘fight’' and German streiten '‘quarrel’'.
