Clapping

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clapping hand

Clapping is when you hit your hands together which makes a sound. The harder you hit, the louder the sound, the softer you hit, less the sound. If hitting by means of hand to hand contact it will make a different sound than if you were to clap against another object, say, your leg.

When people clap quickly together, this is called applause.
