snip-snap-snorumn.

Etymology: < Low German snipp-snapp-snorum (also -snurr), = German schnipp-schnapp-schnorum (or -schnurr), on which see the article in Grimm's Dict.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: snip-snap-ˈsnorum.

A round game of cards, played (esp. by the young) in various ways, in which the players on turning up the requisite cards respectively call ‘snip’, ‘snap’, and ‘snorum’. In R. Hardie Hoyle made familiar (1830) 80 the game is called ‘Snip, Snap, Snore 'em’, and in describing it the words snip, snap, and snore are employed.
