Q:
Qual é a diferença entre snooze e nap ?
A:
Not weird, just a bit cute. Would agree with @putrisashanti that a nap is a daytime thing, and a snooze can be day or night. As a UK English speaker, I might say "I'm off for a nap", "I'm just going to take a quick nap", "...just going to have a quick snooze". To be honest, I don't hear the word 'nap' used much in the UK. I think "taking a nap" might be more commonly used in America. Also you can say "I'm just going to put my head down for a while", to mean 'taking a nap'.

Q:
Qual é a diferença entre snooze e doze off ?
A:
A doze is a light, fitful sleep. For example:
"Yesterday in class I fell into a light sleep for a couple of seconds. My partner had to wake me up and the instructor told me to stop sleeping. I hadn't had too much sleep the previous night, so when it kept happening, she talked to me after class and told me to stop dozing off. However, I was grateful that she let me relax in the classroom until the next period."
(Fitful sleep: Sleep that involves waking up often.)
However, a snooze is a short, light sleep. These usually aren't fitful, as they are naturally short.
"I spotted Emily taking a snooze, which bothered me a bit as I knew she should have been finishing her studies."
