==Etymology==
A slap or "smack" is a broad stroke made with the open hand or the back of the hand, as opposed to a punch that is made with a closed fist. Slaps are frequently made across the face, but can be also made across hands or any other body part. Typically "slapping" refers to a blow with the open palm of the hand.
