- 1偷偷摸摸(的)；(a sneaking suspicion) 隱隱約約的懷疑
"Sneaking" is the -ing form of "sneak," which means moving quietly and secretly so nobody notices you, often because you are doing something you shouldn't. "Sneaking around" means secretly doing things you don't want others to know about. There is also a set phrase, "a sneaking suspicion," meaning a small feeling that something is true even though you have no clear proof — the feeling "sneaks up" on you quietly.
From the word’s history
sneak + -ing; sneak is possibly from Middle English sniken, from Old English snīcan 'to creep, crawl'.
sneak 加 -ing；sneak 可能源自古英文 snīcan「爬行」。
組成sneak (to move quietly and secretly) + -ing.
