North opens 1♠.
South responds 2, a 2/1 force to game.

North's priority is to now show the 4-card suit. Remember that South might also have 4 s.

South doesn't have 4 s, nor does she have 3 ♠s. Furthermore, she does not have stoppers in ♣s so she cannot bid NT. Since she has to keep bidding, but has no reasonable bid she can make, she bids the fourth suit, 3♣. Compare this Deal with Deal 21.

North understands that South's ♣ bid is Fourth-Suit-Forcing, and does not actually show ♣s. However since North does have a ♣ stopper he bids 3NT. In this case this turns out to be the best game contract.
