What does TRODE mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaic
To walk, tread or trample over something; an archaic past tense and past participle of tread, now replaced by trod.
Trode did the same job that trod does today, marking the past of tread in a sentence such as he trode the same path his father had. Both trode and trod existed side by side in older English before trod won out as the standard form, leaving trode to survive only in archaic and literary writing such as older poetry and translations of scripture. A modern writer reaching for the past tense of tread now reliably chooses trod, so meeting trode in a text signals that it is either old or deliberately imitating an older style.
How TRODE is used
Archaic; met in older texts and deliberately old-fashioned writing rather than in current speech.
