In clapping as defined in the first post two hands are struck against one another to make a noise.
What is the sound of one of the hands? it is the same as the sound of both of the hands.
The sound of one of the hands is equal to the sound of the other hand, but both hands are required to make the clap. The question is, in a clap does one hand have a seperate defined sound? if it does what is it?
is the clap made up of both the hands?
if the hand was to clap on a piece of wood/a wall/ a thigh would it still be a clap?
I can clap with one hand quite easily, but it's not the same clap that comes from 2 hands.
I say you can't have the sound of one hand separate from the sound of the clap, the clap is 2 equal hands simultaneously clapping each other.
