British slang "snog" - 02/15/03 09:54 PM
In TIME for Feb.17 review of William Boyd's "Any Human Heart" the reviewer says "....in what
amounts to literary incest, Mounstuart indulges in a brief snog with Waugh himself."
I found a page on BBC news that uses "snog" as a teenage term for osculation. Somehow that
doesn't seem to fit the use in the book review.
