Default What does "urging" a clutch pedal mean versus what is a"treading" force?

As others have suggested, I beelieve the treading force is the
force applied by the foot to depress the clutch pedal.

I wonder if "urging the clutch pedal" may refer to the process of
releasing it gradually (after first being depressed) by reducing
the treading force until the transmission begins to be engaged and
the clutch pedal can be released entirely?
