If you pinch or "pluck" the guitar string then let it go (based on how far away you let it go from the fretboard), you will get a "slap" effect. This is where the string "slaps" against the fretboard to give it a sharp twang before resuming a vibration. This is a classic effect often used on bass Guitars, though there are different methods of doing this. One of which is to sharply knock the string into the fretboard and very quickly pulling away with the side of the thumb so that the string can still make a decent vibration.
