It hasn't been used in any Munchkin set to date and there are sets that have actual cards with "Backpack" in the name, so that could lead to confusion.

I recognize that this is a very common fan term, but it's not in the official rules.

The usual English verb is "give"; a "gift" is the noun resulting from an act of giving. I do understand that some people discuss "gifting," but I mostly hear that term from fundraisers.

That said, "regifting" is a thing. English is inconsistent; you may have noticed.

That's the most common example, yes. I can't remember if we put others into the Munchkin Warhammer 40,000 sets.

No. Steeds and Vehicles are the same; Ships are distinct from both. This goes back over 10 years to Ships' first appearance in Munchkin Booty.

Nope. If you give another player an Item, it must be in play. (Charity is an apparent exception, but then it's not "giving," it's Charity.)

You can give another player an Item for any reason at any time, if the other player is willing to accept it. I'm not sure why you would do that for reasons other than bribery, but the option is there.

Looting another player's body has nothing to do with trading or giving Items; it's much closer to theft (but has its own rules, including being able to take a wider variety of cards).
