@mfhava Yes, the two words are very similar and can be used synonymously (they have the same meaning). There is a slight difference though.
Leaping is a very large jump, while jumping would be described smaller than leaping. They both involve bending your knees and pushing off the ground, either moving vertically or horizontally. Jump is used more often than leap.
Jump:
•little children jumping
•athletes jumping high into the air
•athletes jumping over a long stretch of ground
•a person jumping out of a window
Idioms with jump:
•jump on the bandwagon
(join everybody else in support of a person or cause, not necessarily sincerely)
•jump for joy
(be joyous, not necessarily jumping literally)
•jump the gun
(start something before the expected time)
•jump out of one's skin
(to be very surprised or shocked)
Leap:
•deer leaping
•ballet dancers leaping
•leap of faith (to make a bold decision or perform an act without knowing the outcome)
