Slapping or smacking refers to striking a person with the open palm of the hand. A backhand uses the back of the hand instead of the palm.
The word was first recorded in 1632, probably as a form of onomatopoeia. It shares its beginning consonants with several other English words related to violence, such as “slash”, “slay”, and “slam”. The word is found in several English colloquialisms, such as, “slap fight”, “slap-happy”, “slapshot”, “slapstick”, “slap on the wrist” (as a mild punishment), “slap in the face” (as an insult or, alternatively, as a reproof against a lewd or insulting comment), and “slap on the back” (an expression of friendship or congratulations).
In jazz and other styles of music, the term refers to the action of pulling an instrument’s strings back and allowing them to smack the instrument: see Slapping (music).
“Bitch slap” is slang phrase that dates back to the 1990s. It means to slap someone hard for being insolent or unproductive in order to show dissatisfaction, contempt, or disrespect with the goal of gaining dominance over them and reducing them to submission.
