pedal

ped al 1 |ˈpedl ˈpɛdl | ▶noun a foot-operated lever or control for a vehicle, musical instrument, or other mechanism, in particular: • each of a pair of cranks used for powering a bicycle or other vehicle propelled by leg power. • a foot-operated throttle, brake, or clutch control in a motor vehicle. • each of a set of two or three levers on a piano, particularly (also sustaining pedal ) one that, when depressed by the foot, prevents the dampers from stopping the sound when the keys are released. The second is the soft pedal; a third, if present, produces either selective sustaining or complete muffling of the tone. • Music (usu. pedals ) each key of an organ keyboard that is played with the feet. • Music short for pedal note. ▶verb ( pedals, pedaling, pedaled; Brit. pedals, pedalling, pedalled ) [ no obj. ] move by working the pedals of a bicycle: they pedaled along the canal towpath. • [ with obj. ] move (a bicycle ) by working its pedals: she was pedaling a bicycle around town. • work the pedals of a bicycle: he was coming down the path on his bike, pedaling hard. • use the pedals of a piano, esp. in a particular style: (as noun pedaling ) : Chopin gave no indications of pedaling in his manuscript. PHRASES with the pedal to the metal informal with the accelerator of a car pressed to the floor. DERIVATIVES ped al er (Brit. pedaller ) noun ORIGIN early 17th cent. (denoting a foot-operated lever of an organ ): from French pédale, from Italian pedale, from Latin pedalis ‘a foot in length, ’ from pes, ped- ‘foot. ’ usage: People often confuse the words pedal and peddle. Pedal is a noun referring to a foot-operated lever, as on a bicycle, and a verb chiefly meaning ‘move by working the pedals of a bicycle ’ ( they pedaled along the road ). Peddle, on the other hand, is a verb meaning ‘sell goods or promote an idea ’ ( he peddled printing materials around the country | she peddled a ludicrously utopian view of the past ). The related words peddler and pedaler are also confused. A peddler (also spelled pedlar, especially in Britain ) is a person who goes from place to place selling goods, while a pedaler (or, in Britain, a pedaller ) is someone who rides a bike.
