What does "Seder" really mean?

Shalom from Israel, 

 

The main ritual of Passover is the “Seder”, a festive family meal at which the story of the Exodus is recounted. The meaning of the word Seder (סדר) in Hebrew is “order,” a reference to the very specific arrangement of the prayers that are read and the foods that are eaten. Interestingly, the word Seder is related to the word “S’dera” (שדרה) which means an avenue.
