A "gat" is a geographical term used in South Africa to refer to a specific type of landform, typically characterized as a narrow mountain pass or gorge. The word "gat" is derived from Afrikaans, where it means "hole" or "opening." In the context of landforms, a gat is formed through natural erosion processes, where water or other geological forces create a passage through hills or mountains.
