American Oxford Thesaurus

chomp

chomp verb I could hear her chomping on the celery: munch, crunch, chew, bite; champ. USAGE chomp, champ The original and better term for what horses do to their bits is champ. Chomp is an American variant. (Oddly, American English has transformed champ into chomp, but stomp into stamp. ) The two spellings have undergone some degree of differentiation. What one champs is not actually eaten, but just bitten or gnawed, nervously. But to chomp something is to take a bite out of it and usually to consume it. In dialect, chomp is colloquially accompanied by the adverb down ( chompin ’ down catfish ). Chomp is sometimes mistakenly used in place of champ in the idiom —e.g.: “DreamWorks chomps [read champs ] the bit with Whoa, Nelly! ’ a world-beat rock album by Nelly Furtado, on Sept. 26.” ( Billboard; Sept. 16, 2000.) The idiom champing at the bit evokes the image of an impatient horse, especially one eager for a race to start. In contemporary print sources, it is slightly more common than the variant form, chomping at the bit. Usage notes show additional guidance on finer points of English usage.
