A splinter bid is a conventional bid that promises support for partner's suit while showing shortness (one or zero cards) in another suit. It is usually an unusual jump in a new suit. For example, over partner's 1H opening, a bid of 4C would be a splinter bid, showing four or more hearts and at most one club (plus the strength to be in game).
