Etymology of THRED

The word "thred" is a variant spelling of the word "thread", which refers to a thin strand of a fiber like cotton, silk, or nylon, commonly used in sewing or knitting. The etymology of "thread" can be traced back to the Old English word "þrǽd", which is related to the Old Frisian word "thred" and the Old High German word "drat". These words all ultimately derive from the Proto-Germanic word "*þredą". The Proto-Germanic root "*þredą" has Indo-European origins and is believed to have evolved from the Proto-Indo-European root "*tere-", meaning "cross over" or "penetrate". The word "thread" has been a part of the English language since the Old English period and has remained in usage with its spelling adapted to the current "thread" form.
