What does CHOMP mean?
CHOMP (verb): to chew or bite on something vigorously or noisily. Example: “The horse chomped on the apple while waiting for its rider.”
Similar: chew, munch, bite, gnaw.
Did you know? "Chomp" began in the 1600s as a variant of the older verb "champ," to chew noisily, which was itself probably coined to imitate the sound of working jaws.
Using CHOMP in a sentence
CHOMP usually takes on, at or through: a dog chomps on a bone, and a toddler chomps through a bag of crackers. It's the source of chompers, playful slang for teeth. The best-known phrase is chomping at the bit, meaning impatient to get started, like a horse biting at its bit before a race. The older form is champing at the bit, and some style guides still prefer it, but chomping has become the more common version in everyday speech. As a noun, a chomp is a single big bite.
How CHOMP fits the puzzle
CHOMP circles C, O and P, the opening C-O and the P of COMPACT.
Its circled letters feed the caption answer, COMPACT CAR.
