​ solch, pronoun, ‘such,’ from the equivalent Middle High German solich, solh (sülich), Old High German sulih, solih (hh and single h); corresponding to Old Saxon sulic, and Dutch zulk. Just as Anglo-Saxon swâ and Gothic swa represent High German and Low German sô, so Anglo-Saxon swylč (English such), and Gothic swaleiks, ‘such,’ represent sulîk. For the form and meaning of the Teutonic suffix lîko (liho-) compare lich and welcher.
