OP in Anu's post, he mentions the term pad (from the dutch for path) as shairing a root with other words (tread, etc)
here in NYC if you walk around indoors barefoot, or with only socks on, you are padding..(around the house)
is this use common else where? or is it another sneeky little dutch word that is part of the NYC/NYS lexicon?
(i always pad around the house.)
