Etymology

From Middle Persian 𐭯𐭣𐭠𐭲𐭪' (pdʾtk' /⁠payādag⁠/), from Proto-Iranian *padātaka- / *padātika- (“on foot”), either from a compound of *pada- +‎ *taka-, the former component from Proto-Iranian *pā́dah (“foot”), the latter from Proto-Iranian *tač- (“to walk, flow”), from Proto-Indo-European *tekʷ- (“to run, flow”), or from *padāti- +‎ *-kah, the former a secondary derivation from *pā́dah, the latter from Proto-Indo-Iranian *-kas (“deadjectival suffix, -ic”). Compare russian пешка(peška) from proto-slavic *pědšь(on foot) + suffix *ka.
