What is a trump suit in bridge?

In bridge, the bidding often designates a suit as the trump suit. If the final contract has a suit associated with it — 4♠, 3♥, 2♦, or even 1♣, for example — that suit becomes the trump suit for the entire hand. Often, in bridge books, a single card like the four of spades is written ♠4 because it saves space.
