The word "walk" originates from Old English wealcan, meaning "to roll" or "to toss." Over time, its meaning shifted to describe the motion of moving on foot, likely influenced by the repetitive, rolling motion of stepping. The modern sense of "walking" as a steady, bipedal gait emerged in Middle English, replacing the earlier Germanic term gān.
