A leap year is a year that is one day longer than the normal year.
We have them because in reality it takes the Earth one year and 1/4 day to go around the Sun. If we didn't add one day every 4th year the calendar would begin to slide compared to the seasons.
If you look real close there are even finer adjustments made every now and then, with leap hours, minutes and seconds. All done to keep the calendar in synch with the seasons.
A leap year is singular--it only occurs ONE time and ONLY in that year. (One) Leap Year occurs every 4 years.
