The word "snash" originated from Middle English "snaschen", which in turn came from Old Norse "snǫskr", meaning to chatter or snap the teeth. The Old Norse term is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "*snaskwōną", meaning to gnash or grind the teeth. Ultimately, the root of "snash" can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European word "*sneh₂g-" or "*snek₂-", which carries the meaning of touching or snapping.
