| has gloss | (noun) snow pressed into a ball for throwing (playfully) snowball |
| has gloss | eng: A snowball is a spherical object made from snow, usually created by scooping snow with the hands, and compacting it into a roughly fist-sized ball. The snowball is often used to engage in games, such as snowball fights. Snowball fights are usually light-hearted and involve throwing snowballs at one's friends or family. The pressure exerted by the hands on the snow is a determinant for the final result. Reduced pressure leads to a light and soft snowball. A higher pressure causes the snow to melt, turning into liquid water. Once the pressure is removed, the water turns again into ice, leading to a more compact and hard snowball called an iceball, which eventually can be considered harmful during a snowball fight. The process of melting and refreezing is called regelation. |
| has gloss | eng: Snowballs is a ball of snow. They are usually made by a person picking snow up in their hands and pressing it together in the ball the size of their hand. Snowballs are usually thrown at people or objects as a game called a snowball fight. Making snowballs is a common activity for children when it snows. |

| has gloss | ces: Sněhová koule je koule vytvořená ze sněhu nebo ledové tříště. Vytváří se tak, že se rukama upěchuje a uplácá sníh tak, že vznikne kompaktní sněhová hmota, která má přibližně tvar koule. Sněhové koule se používají při různých hrách, např. při koulované. Při tvorbě sněhové koule je velmi důležitý tlak, jakým je sníh stlačován. Při malém tlaku vzniká lehká a jemná koule. Větší tlak způsobuje částečné tání sněhu, při kterém vzniká ledová kaše. Po uvolnění tlaku se kaše zpět mění v led. Výsledkem je těžká a tvrdá ledová koule, která může při koulované způsobit i vážné zranění. |

| has gloss | deu: Ein Schneeball ist eine Kugel aus Schnee, die mit den Händen zusammengedrückt, oder über verschneites Gelände gerollt wird, wobei sie durch Anhaften neuen Schnees immer größer wird. Dies funktioniert am besten mit Feuchtschnee (auch „Pappschnee“), weil dieser klebrig wirkt. Es ist dagegen fast unmöglich, aus Pulverschnee einen Schneeball zu formen oder eine Kugel (bzw. Walze) zu rollen. Außerdem kann aus größeren Schneekugeln ein Schneemann gebaut werden. |

| has gloss | fin: Lumipallo on nimensä mukaisesti lumesta muodostettu pallo. Se tehdään yleensä kauhomalla suojalunta kinoksesta tai hangesta ja muokkaamalla se nyrkinkokoiseksi palloksi. Lumipalloja voi heitellä yksinäänkin, mutta vasta lumisodassa ne pääsevät kunnolla oikeuksiinsa. Lumipallokeli on ihanteellinen kun lunta sataa hienokseltaan ja lämpötila on asettunut muutaman celsiusasteen tasolle. |
