The past tense of the word "leap" is "leapt" or "leaped". Both are correct, but "leapt" is more commonly used in British English, while "leaped" is commonly used in American English. Additionally, the use of "leapt" or "leaped" can also depend on how the writer or speaker wants the sentence to sound. The "-ed" ending can give a softer, more modern feel, while the "-t" ending can provide a more traditional and poetic tone. Both forms are accepted and it ultimately boils down to personal preference. So next time you write or speak about someone leaping, feel free to use the form that sounds best to you!
