What is a "snap"?
A snap in football is the action where the center passes the ball to the quarterback to start a play. The ball is typically passed from the ground, either directly between the center's legs or to one side, depending on the type of play. Once the quarterback receives the ball, they can either throw a pass, hand the ball off to a running back, or run with the ball themselves. The snap is the first action that begins each play in football and must be accurate to ensure the play runs smoothly.

a children's card game in which players place cards one by one and the winner is the first to shout "snap" when noticing two matching cards together
What is "snap"?
Snap is a fast-paced card game that has been popular for many years, especially among children, with roots tracing back to the 19th century in Europe. It is usually played by two or more players using a standard deck of cards. The goal is to be the first to call "snap" when two cards of the same rank are placed on the pile. Players take turns placing cards face-up in the center, and when two matching cards appear, anyone can shout "snap" to win the pile. The game continues until one player collects all the cards, or until players decide to end the game. Snap is simple, quick, and requires good observation skills.
