What is spade and club?

Spade and club are two of the four suits in a standard deck of playing cards, the other two being hearts and diamonds.

Spades are depicted as a black leaf-shaped figure, with a stem at the bottom that points upwards. It is the highest-ranking suit in the game of bridge. In trick-taking games, such as whist or spades, the player who has the highest ranking spade card will win the trick.

Clubs are depicted as a black three-leaf clover-shaped figure, with a stem at the bottom that points downwards. It is the lowest-ranking suit in the game of bridge. In trick-taking games, the player who holds the highest ranking club card will win the trick.

In some countries, like India, the spade suit is called a "sword," and the club suit is called a "katti."

Both spades and clubs are integral parts of card games and are used to differentiate the values of the cards.
