Hi Avangi,

I apologize I interrupted.

Hi, Tinanam,

To tread is to step, or to walk. It's not used very frequently these days - mostly in poetry.
Tread lightly. Don't wake her.

With cat-like tread, upon our prey we steal. (We sneak up on them like a cat. Our steps are like those of a cat.)
- a song from The Pirates Of Penzance (G & S)
