A slap is like when you play with a balloon, and you hit it with your hand to make it fly in the air. But instead of a balloon, it’s when your hand quickly hits something or someone else. Imagine your hand is like a paddle, and when it moves fast and touches something, it makes a loud sound, like clapping your hands really hard.
Think of a slap like when you’re playing with blocks and one falls over and hits the floor with a smack. It’s a quick and sudden touch that can sometimes catch you by surprise.
A slap can also feel like when you clap your hands together really fast. It’s that quick motion and sound that happens when your skin hits something.
When you slap water, it splashes everywhere, just like when you jump in a puddle and the water jumps up. A slap is a fast and sometimes noisy way of touching something.
