snap

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'make a grab at' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'break' is the second definition.
(I know that snap is a type of break)

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for snap that I've seen before include "Informal photograph" , "Click! - a photograph!" , "Still" , "Break off - card-game" , "Photograph - without warning" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
