ttwida is the picture of feet leaving the ground and clearing a gap at once. Feet lifting off in turn as the body springs forward is running; kicking off the floor and coming back down is jumping. The inside of the chest thumping like a drum is a pounding heart, a number leaping up in one go instead of one notch is prices jumping, and a player moving inside the field is playing in the match.
