The word "gasp" can be used as a noun or a verb. A short spasmodic intake or catching of breath is known as a gasp. As a verb, the word "gasp" can also mean "to speak breathlessly." The word originates from the Old Norse "geispa," which means "to yawn."

A gasp is often produced out of shock or surprise. When someone is not expecting something and it comes in front of the person's sight or knowledge, he or she can react in total surprise or astonishment. An expression of surprise is often visible when the person starts to talk in gasps or struggles for breath as he comes to terms with the situation. An expression of panting or fumbling with words due to fear, anger, joy or even out of physical exertion is called as "gasping. "
