Do you say jump rope or skipping rope?

I say jump rope. I never heard of anyone saying skipping rope here in the States, because, to me, skipping means moving in a light, springy manner by bounding forward with alternate hops on each foot.

More seriously - I've only ever heard jump rope.

I've heard both used, but I myself say jump rope.

I would guess it depends whether you speak US or UK English, until I started using the internet I'd always known it as a skipping rope.

If I can hijack this to ask a quick question about the Esperanto usage:

A quick search says the word for this object is saltoŝnuro, but the verb is ŝnursalti (to skip rope). How often does this type of reversal happen? It makes sense to me (the former is a type of rope, while the latter is a type of jumping), I'm just not sure I've come across it before.

I had never heard of jump rope before reading this thread. I've always called it a skipping rope.

'Jump rope' seems a less accurate description to me. It's a special sort of jump called 'skipping', so that's what I call it.

Depends on how you do it. With skipping, you're always lifting off of one foot, while with jumping you can use two feet. Both ways can be used with a jump rope/skipping rope. In fact, I'd be surprised if most people don't use both methods in the same session.

Sometimes, you're not jumping. If you watch some double dutch, you can see people basically running in place in time with the ropes. And then, if you get into the more spectacular routines, you're not using just your feet. Handstands, being lifted by a partner, bouncing on your rump...

That's why I think skipping rope is more accurate; skipping rather than 'jumping rope'. I realise I'm obviously influenced by where I come from.

Skipping rope for me. I would easily understand jump rope and probably wouldn't even notice you didn't say "skipping."
Next question: why do you ask?
