different between galloping vs skipping

English

galloping

galloping (plural gallopings)

Movement at a gallop.
- 1973, Poul Anderson, Hrolf Kraki's Saga
  But the dreams came upon him too: gallopings and shouts through a windy sky, wingbeats, cruel beaks and claws, a feeling of loss unspeakable and unbounded.

skipping

skipping (plural skippings)

The act by which something is skipped or omitted.
- 2008, Manfred Schroeder, Number Theory in Science and Communication (page 143)
  Suppose we permit irregular skippings and connect, for example, 1 with 3 with 6 with 2 with 4 – but now we cannot skip any more because the only missing point is the adjacent point 5.
