ᴹQ. vanta- v. “to walk” (Category: to Walk)
A verb for “to walk” in The Etymologies of the 1930s under the root ᴹ√BAT “tread” (Ety/BAT).
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Eldarin, I assume ᴹ√BAT is for a “heavy walk” as opposed for √PAT for a “light walk” or “step”, so I would use vanta- for an extended or serious walk, and thus including “*trudge” and “*trek”.
