The English word pedestrian comes from Latin – it isn’t a word readily understood by people just starting to learn English.
Hebrew’s expression, on the other hand, is more accessible: הולך רגל[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/הולך-רגל-#.m4a” /] – literally, foot walker.
For example:

There’s a pedestrians’ crossing over there.
