    Thanks to you I learned something:

    Payed is a rare word that’s only used in nautical/maritime contexts. It can be used to refer to the act of coating parts of a boat with waterproof material or to the act of letting out a rope or chain by slackening it.

    It’s copy pasted from google 🤮, but I verified it.
