Is traverse listing the folder, like typing "dir" at command prompt?

If so then this contradicts:

The Bypass traverse checking user right allows the user to browse through
folders in the NTFS file system or in the registry without checking for the
Traverse Folder special access permission. The Bypass traverse checking user
right does not allow the user to list the contents of a folder; it allows
the user to traverse its folders only.

what is traverse exactly?? the dictionary says "to go through", what is "to
go through" in windows?
