schnappen
to grab / catch (air)
- Past (Präteritum)
- schnappte
- Past participle
- geschnappt (haben)
Regular weak verb taking haben. Commonly used with air to mean getting fresh air or catching one's breath. Also used transitively for snatching or grabbing objects quickly, often with a sense of suddenness. Do not confuse with schnappen as an intransitive verb of motion which can sometimes take sein in regional dialect usage, though standard German strictly maintains haben for this verb.
