Best Answer

A leap year is a year containing one extra day in order to keep the calendar year synchronized with the astronomical or seasonal year. For example, in the Gregorian calendar (common calendar), February in a leap year has 29 days instead of the usual 28, so the year lasts 366 days instead of the usual 365.
