The answer

STILT

What stilt means

A long, thin pole or post that supports a structure above the ground, or one of a pair of poles with foot rests used for walking at an elevated height.

Where the word comes from

From Middle Dutch *stilt* or a related Low German word, possibly connected to Old Norse *stiltr*, meaning "stiff" or "steep." The walking device sense emerged in the 16th century, likely from the idea of stiff, leg-like poles. The word may ultimately trace to Proto-Germanic roots related to stiffness or standing erect, though the exact path is uncertain.
