nap
Midday restorative slumber
A nap is a short sleep, usually during the day: I took a quick nap after lunch.
To nap is to sleep briefly or to be caught off guard: The announcement caught us napping.
Separately, nap refers to the raised fuzzy surface on fabric like velvet or corduroy—the direction the fibers lie.
