They are almost interchangeable, with gaap3 much more popular.
Additional PoS: (Note 2) The Mandarin equivalent is 合. Some Canto dictionaries actually use 合 for this "pool together" meaning and pronounce 合 as gaap3 instead of hap6. (Note3): For the "forcibly" meaning, 夾 has a nasal-stop alternant in 監 [gaam3]. They are completely interchangeable. Stroke count: 7
