snogged

Made out passionately

Snogged is the past tense of snog, British slang for kissing passionately—what Americans might call making out.

The term suggests extended, enthusiastic kissing rather than a quick peck: They snogged in the back of the cinema.

Common in British youth culture and popularized internationally through British media.
