In this specific example, "[old english tread to tread]" suggests that the term "tread" can be traced back to Old English, and it implies that the word has remained relatively unchanged in its spelling and pronunciation since that time.
However, for the options you provided, it does not exactly fit into any of them. The information in brackets does not give an alternate pronunciation, an alternate spelling, or a synonym of "tread." Instead, it offers insight into the historical roots of the word.
