The Hebrew word means 'bring out' or 'draw out'. It is a shorthand way of referring to the blessing recited over bread at the beginning of a meal, in which the King of the Universe is praised as the one who "draws out" bread from the earth, with the words "... haMOTzi LEchem MIN haAretz".

How is the Passover observed?
Passover is one of the three pilgrimage holidays mentioned in the Torah (Bible). Observant Jews observe it for seven days in Israel, eight days outside of Israel. There are many customs associated with the holiday, primarily not eating bread or other leavened products, celebrating at the Seder with the reading of the Hagaddah, going to synagogue on the first and last days (first two and last two outside of Israel), and refraining from working on those days.
What is the Seder feast?
The Seder meal has its basis in verses in Exodus ch.12. It is the occasion in which we eat the "matzos (unleavened hardtack) and bitter herbs" mentioned there, and fulfill "you shall recount to your son on that day...(what) God did for me when we left Egypt". All the foods, words and deeds of the Seder are to recount and symbolically relive the Exodus and the events preceding it.
What do Jews do on the Passover?
The mother cleans the house first, then she lights a candle then she cooks a meal it contains parsley and salt water to dip it in, once for the Drowning of the Egyptians twice for the tears that were shed, an egg, Charoseth, A lamb Bone, unleavened bread. All that goes on one big plate; then on a smaller plate, they put a Matzo cracker and the father takes a 1/4th piece of it and puts it in a special bag and hides it for the children to find. Later to the side of the same plate they put horseradish for the bitterness of slavery and (not on that plate) there are four cups wich are filled with red wine the first one stands for santification; the second,plagues; the third,redemption; and the last, praise. The last thing they need is a basin of water which is a an open, shallow, usually round container used especially for holding liquids. Which is used for washing there hands in.Answer:Pesach (Passover) is important to us since in it we relive the Exodus from Egypt and our birth as a nation, both of which were preparations for receiving the Torah from God.The highlight of Passover is the Seder meal. This meal is of great importance in Judaism. It is a 3325-year old continuous tradition that began on the night of the Exodus from Egypt (see Exodus chapter 12), and is fully detailed in our ancient Oral Traditions (Talmud, chapter Arvei Pesachim).The Seder meal is one of those occasions, like Yom Kippur and Hanukkah, that Jews all over the world, Orthodox and non-Orthodox alike, observe in common. During the Seder, we keep the essential mitzva and customs of handing Jewish traditions down to the next generation, with the traditional Seder foods and the ceremony of reading the Passover Haggadah which retells the events of the Exodus.During the Seder meal, other traditional foods are eaten in addition to the matzah: bitter herbs, parsley, wine and haroset (see below). Salt water, a roasted egg, and a bit of roasted meat are also on the table.During all the days of Passover, matzah (unleavened bread) is eaten; while leavened foods such as bread, cake, cookies, cereal and pasta are forbidden. Certain prayers are added in the synagogue services, and the Torah is read each day.Here is the symbolism of the items on the Seder plate:The bitter herbs (maror) symbolize the harsh slavery which the Israelites suffered in Egypt. Either horseradish or romaine lettuce is traditionally used for maror.Charoset - A sweet mixture representing the mortar used by the Jewish slaves to build the storehouses of Egypt. In Ashkenazi Jewish homes, charoset is traditionally made from chopped nuts, grated apples, cinnamon, and sweet red wine.Karpas - A vegetable other than bitter herbs, traditionally parsley, which is dipped into salt water at the beginning of the Seder. The dipping of a simple vegetable into salt water (which represents tears) recalls the pain felt by the Jewish slaves in Egypt.Beitzah - A hard-boiled egg, symbolizing the korban chagigah (festival sacrifice) that was offered in the Temple in Jerusalem and roasted and eaten as part of the meal on Seder night. Although both the Pesach sacrifice and the chagigah were meat offerings, the chagigah is commemorated by an egg, a symbol of mourning.Z'roa - A roasted lamb or goat shank-bone, chicken wing, or chicken neck; symbolizing the korban Pesach (Pesach sacrifice), which was a lamb that was offered in the Temple in Jerusalem, then roasted and eaten as part of the meal on Seder night.
