She talked in a babble like the

babble

of birds

,

bark.n

There were a lot of grimaces, and a little

dry
kuiva

bark
haukahdus

sometimes, but never a laugh.
The dog
Koira

had her head thrown back ready to deliver another

bark
haukahdukseen

but when she saw Julia she rolled her navy-blue eye in its white socket and smiled.
He began to cough in

rasping
rohisevasti

barks
ärjähdellen

that became horribly convulsive before eventually subsiding.
He had heard shouts like these then, and the

bark
haukunta

of dogs
koirien

, and the cries and screams as Jewish friends near by were found and summarily shot.
He
Hän

shook his head then and did a series of

short
lyhyitä

barks
ärjäisyjä

in his throat.
She was woken by one

excited
innostunut

bark
haukunta

from Em
Emin

, sternly quelled, but enough to waken her.
Once I heard two calling to each other across a valley, a weird sound, vaguely resembling

a baboon's
paviaanin

bark

`Dratted animal! ``muttered Araminta over her mother's imprecations and

Hector's
Hectorin

excited
innostuneen

barks

, giving him a baleful glare.

beep.n

The

beep

of a pager
Tahdistimen

could be heard from under a blanket.
The

droning
matalat

beep

of cranes removing rubble

ceased.
The boat's listening devices are designed to pick up water-activated

There was a polite `

``from the intercom.
But

their

The boat is carrying special listening devices designed locate

the ``black box, which

Forgetting to switch it off after leaving the office,

its

several hours later warned of its almost flat battery!
Now, do you hear a

long

and a short beep, a long beep and a short beep?
Tired of Amiga and Mac users taking the mickey out of the

By tea-time I was aware of walking strangely, and dared not run for the

bellow.n

The shipmaster's
Laivurin

bellow
mylvintä

and a wallop on the head from a daring sailor finally pierced the berserk rage.
He
Hän

gave a

triumphant
voitokkaan

bellow
mylväisyn

as Bull O'Malley shook his head.
It's a voice that doesn't belong to one of the villagers and she seems not to understand: maybe she can't even hear, above the

bellow
paukkeen

of the drums
rumpujen

.
Almost as frightening was the

bellow
mylvintä

of Buddie's voice
Buddien äänen

when it grew huge and powerful with anger, and the shouted words that struck like blows to make Frankie flinch and tremble.
There was a

bellow
mylvi

of rage
raivosta

from the Grand Duke
Grand Duke

, incapable of other speech as he stared transfixed at the empty desk.
Balor

let out a

bellow
mylväisyn

and, in the same moment, the Trees closed in.
The furnace reaction

.
The animals, confused and frightened,
Hämmentyneet ja peloissaan olevat eläimet

let out

wrenching
tuskaisia

bellows
ulvaisuja

, and sometimes charged their drivers.
A

loud
Äänekäs

bellow
ulvahdus

rang out as the bullets struck home, then they heard a heavy body plunging wildly among the restraining toils of the thorn bushes.

blare.n

The

blare
ulvonta

of music
musiikin

from the social room
oleskelutiloista

came in very loud.
She tried to call him but he could not have heard her because the air was filled with the terrible

blare
huuto

of a foghorn
sumutorven

.
The

urgent
vaativa

blare
törähdys

of his car horn
autontorven

drew their attention back to the sheriff's tall figure.
No half-way house: from silence to

incessant
alituiseen

blare

.

blast.n

From the distance the

eerie
aavemainen

blast
törähdys

of a horn
torven

strikes sudden terror.
Presently she heard a klaxon, two

slight short
melko lyhyttä

blasts
törähdystä

like a morse signal
, kuin sähkötystä

— the stranger: Andrée, in person.
All their trumpets tilted up from the ground, as if together

they
he

were sounding a

blast
törähdyksen

to the sky.
Angry
Vihaiset

blasts
törähdykset

from horns behind
takana olevista torvista

greeted the manoeuvre as other drivers were forced to swing around and squeeze through the gap between his hired Fiesta and approaching traffic.
Around three am there was a

huge
suuri

blast
pamaus

from the direction of the palace
palatsin suunnalta

, which woke even Howard from the slumber into which he had fallen.
Tug skippers, who had never before acknowledged the presence of the moored barges, called out, or gave the danger signal --

live rapid

blasts
törähdystä

in succession
peräkkäin

.
An

eerie
aavemainen

blast
törähdys

on a horn
torven

signalled the start of the ceremony and the crowd became silent.
The hooter recommenced

its
<empty>

strident
äänekkäimmän

blasts
törähdyksensä

.
As he did so, he leaned on the horn for a

long
pitkän

blast
törähdyksen

, to let the others know he was clear.
The `ghost voice ``, which often broke into German radio news broadcasts, replaced by

trumpet
trumpetin

blasts
törähdykset

, drowning the announcer's words.
Suddenly a

loud
äänekäs

horn
torven

blast
törähdys

pieced the air, a thin strident note pregnant with urgency.
What was the trouble today? she wondered, as

impatient
kärsimättömät

horn
torven

blasts
törähdykset

began to sound.

bleat.n

Muffled
Vaimeaa

bleats
ruikutusta

and strangled gurgles leaked from my lips.
The

bleat
mäkätys

of unseen sheep
Näkymättömän lampaan

.
The only sounds to be heard were the sheep's teeth tearing grass and

their
niiden

low, rumbling
matala, jyrisevä

bleats
mäkätys

.

boom.n

Then there was like a

big
suuri

boom
pamaus

and I was just spinning around.
Through the open window floated the sound of traffic, and then above this the

boom
lyönti

of Big Ben sounding the hour
Big Benin tasatunnin

.
Accompanied by growls and

booms
kumun

of distant thunder
etäisen ukkosen

, which rattled the panes, it filled the night.
But few motor cars, no big city life: instead, an almost uncanny, disconcerting stillness, the only constant sound the distant

boom
lyönti

of waves
aaltojen

on the reef
riuttaa vasten

.
There is a

hollow
ontto

boom
kumahdus

of surf
mainingin

as if some massive object has just been chucked into the sea.
A cheer rang out from the natives assembled above the melon beds; it could be heard even over the

boom
jylyn

of cannons
tykkien

and rattle of musketry.

bray.n

The narrow, hot streets dinned with the silver

bray
törähdyksien

of trumpets
trumpettien

and the shrieks of dying men and women.
There was a smell of burning fat in the air and, in the distance, the

bray
kiljuntaa

of raucous singing
riehakasta laulun-

.
Athelstan was sure that they all looked his way but again came the

shrill
äänekkäitä

bray
törähdyksiä

of the trumpets
trumpettien

.
They would wait silently by the roadside for a victim and could only he identified if forced to speak, for then

they
he

would emit a

loud
äänekkään

bray
kiljahduksen

.

burble.n

Yet the Discovery has a classy, Conran-designed interior, excellent seats and ride-comfort and

a wonderful, rumbling V8 engine that
upea, hyrräävä V8-moottori, joka

emits just the

same blue-blooded
samaa siniveristä

burble
pörinää

as a Range Rover
kuin Range Rover

.
They both listened to the

gentle
vaimeaa

burble
pörinää

of the exhaust
pakoputken

for another minute, then Bert cut the engine.
She went crimson, then left the room, her exit being followed by a

burble
pulputusta

of chatter
puheen

as the women expressed their surprise.
There was a

happy
iloista

burble
pulputusta

of voices
äänten

which came from a few children discussing some design they were doing.
There was a

burble
puheensorinaa

of relief
helpottunutta

from the crowd
väkijoukosta

.
It was a picture I had examined with attention through many an hour of

boring
tylsää

burble
puheensorinaa

, raucous revivalist song and whining, wheezing harmonium.

buzz.n

If the female is of a different species,

she
se

emits a

buzz
surisevan äänen

and the male flies off to try his luck elsewhere.
Under cover of the

buzz
sorinan

of conversation,
keskustelun

Rosie turned to Ruth.
In the stillness there was the

buzz
surinaa

of bees
mehiläisten

, bird sound -- royal bluebirds darted all around the mountain -- the hum of the Urubamba twisting far below.
There was a particular café which the others frequented, but he knew if he went in he would be greeted dutifully, the

buzz
sorinaa

of talk
puheen-

would die down and one by one his schoolmates would leave.
And opened them sharply at an

insistent, warning
vaativalla ja varoittavalla

buzz
surinalla

from her duty station
hänen työskentelypaikaltaan

.
An

amazed
hämmästynyt

buzz
sorina

ran around the ballroom.

cackle.n

He zoomed to save height, heard the

cackle
kalkatuksen

of machine-guns
konekiväärien

, skidded round in a savage, 180-degree turn, and instinctively ducked as a bright blue Pflaz hurtled over his head.
There was a

cackle
kalkatus

from the old lady
vanhan naisen

.
She
Hän

gave a

cackle
käkätyksen

.
As if in protest,

George
George

uttered a blood-curdling,

lunatic-sounding

cackle
käkätyksen

, and fell fractionally forward.
Iris
Iris

gave a

derisive

Mrs Plumptry's words came into her head, and she could hear

the old lady's

delighted
ilahtuneen

cackle
pälpätyksen

.
Tired
väsynyttä

cackles
pälpätystä

came from Mehringer and Sedlmayer.

caw.n

He heard with awful clarity, above the shuffle of feet and the soft roaring of cars, the croak and

caw
rääkymistä

of rooks
mustavaristen

and their tattered scuffling overhead.

chatter.n

`I'm so glad to have met you, ``Anneliese was saying over the

chatter
puheensorinan

and hubbub

of the party
juhlien

, one-year-old Christian in her arms.
The small stout man
Pieni, tanakka mies

had kept up a

constant
jatkuvaa

chatter
puheensorinaa

as he accompanied the two young people into Dublin city on the train.
Above the

nervous
hermostunut

chatter
puheensorina

that continued once the corporal had left, Charlie could hear the last post being played on a bugle from the castle battlements.
We ate in the London Zoo and our meals were made interesting by the

chatter
pulina

of monkeys
apinoiden

and the roar of lions in the background.
Luke's voice was so low that she had to strain to hear it above the

noisy
äänekkään

chatter
sirkutuksen

of the birds
lintujen

, the rustle of the breeze in the trees.

cheep.n

Not a

cheep
hiiskaustakaan

from it
siitä

.
The

electronic
elektroninen

cheep
sirinä

from the alarm
hälyttimen

chiselled into his skull at precisely a quarter to seven.
I
Minä

gave not one

cheep
viserrystä

, not a chirrup --

chirp.n

We hear these complex vibrations as a

high-pitched
korkeana

chirp
sirityksenä

, but to the female they sound very different.
The third clock remained silent, but as if to compensate,

a watch on the AC's wrist
kello AC:n ranteessa

gave a

tiny
pientä

chirp
siritystä

.
In the absence of an exhaust note, Ashton, goes in search of some `

chirp
siritystä

``

from the tyres
renkaista

.
But, despite throwing the machine round some corners behind the Old Kent Road, there is no

chirp
siritystä

to be heard.

chuckle.n

For a long time Mait didn't answer, until a

low
matala

chuckle
hörähdys

gradually worked its way from his throat.
Dexter ignored

her
hänen

friendly
ystävällisen

chuckle
hörähdyksensä

and explained the reasons why he thought Jim Lancaster was the prime suspect, counting off the points on his fingers.
He
Hän

gave a

chuckle
hörähti

which sounded almost like the other
The

bubbling, watery
kupliva

chuckle
solina

of the river
joen

.
Melissa strolled across, leaned against Iris's fence and closed her eyes, listening to the bleating of young lambs and the

chuckle
tirskunta

of a solitary starling on the roof
katon yksinäisen kottaraisen

.
Chuckles
tirskahdukset

of delight
Ilon

greeted his suggestion that `as the Microsoft monopoly puts programmers out of business they can move to writing objectware for NeXT.
A story which I heard from Dad about his days at Charlton-All-Saints brought a

chuckle
tirskuntaa

from him

as he told it but, at the time, the occasion must have been almost tragic.
`No, Farquhar, ``

he
hän

said with a

bitter
katkerasti

chuckle

He

emitted one of his

painful-sounding nasal

From behind Sacks' closed door comes the

muffled

clack
naputus

of furious typing
raivokkaan kirjoittamisen

.
A

clack
kopse

of shoes
Kenkien

in the road
tietä vasten

outside.
There was a loud

clack
kopina

behind him
hänen takanaan

as one of the players hurled the white down the table, scattering the colours.
I followed the

clack
kopinaa

of her high heels
korkeiden korkojen

down the dark corridor to the front door.
They gazed in awe at the hive of activity against the

muted
mykkää

background

clack
kopinaa

of typewriter and word processor keyboards
kirjoituskoneiden ja näppäimistöjen

.
There was a minute comforting sound in the

soft
pehmeässä

clack
kopinassa

as Nannie worried the laces apart like a gentle dog.

clang.n

There was a

loud
äänekäs

clang
kalahdus

and Broomhead cursed vehemently, pulling on the reins.
As they walked along the street they heard the

strident
äänekkään

clang
kolinan

of a fire engine
paloauton

.
He heard the

clang
kilahduksen

of metal
metallin

on metal
metallia vasten

, and a ricochet whined viciously past his head.
The

clang
Kilahdus

of a sword blade ringing on the stones where she had just been standing
miekan terästä kiville, joilla hän oli juuri seissyt

made the order unnecessary.
There was the

clang
kilahdus

of metal
metallin

as a bar was withdrawn.
Then there was a

clang
kolahdus

as the driver opened the door and climbed down.

clash.n

Outside Athelstan could hear him shouting orders, the sound of running feet and the

clash
kalina

of arms
aseiden

.

clatter.n

There was a

clatter
kolinaa

as he dropped the handset.
Vaguely she wondered why the daily woman who had been with them for years had not put in an appearance before now, and listened in vain for the

cheerful
iloista

clatter
kilinää

of tea-cups
teekuppien

in the passage outside.
They heard an irregular bang and

clatter
kolinaa

of metal
metallin

on wood
puuta vasten

and a constantly repeated shout of `Ho!
There was a long time -- several lifetimes -- when the only sound

was the
oli

clatter
rummutus

of the rain
sateen

against the window
ikkunaa vasten

, then Vitor walked to the cot.
Hearing-aids pick up the

clatter
kolinan

of dishes
astioiden

and swoosh of running water, which compete with speech reception.
There was a

loud
äänekäs

clatter
kolina

of something falling down inside
, kun jotain putosi sisälle

.
The evening was warm; a gentle quiet dusk in which the only sounds were the ripping of the water and the

slight
vaimea

clatter
humina

of the rye stalks moving in the breeze
rukiintähkien liikkuessa tuulessa

.
There was a

clatter
kopina

of running feet
juoksuaskelten

in the street outside
ulkona kadulla

and a fresh uproar from downstairs.
Our thumbs were tied together and, in a

clatter
kolinassa

of arms
aseiden

and a tramp of archers, we were hustled into the dark archways of the Chatelet prison and thrown into a deep dungeon beneath the tower.
Then she walked back into the kitchen and soon heard the

hard
voimakasta

clatter
kopinaa

of shoes
kenkien

on the stone stairs
kiviportaissa

and Giovanna was upon her.
There followed a small silence that was interrupted by a

distant
kaukainen

clatter
kolina

of metal
metallin

from the ward where some poor nurse was probably doing a bedpan round
osastolta, jossa joku hoitajaparka oli luultavasi alusastiakierrolla

.
A

clatter
kopina

of steps
askelten

and another man swung under the alley light pistol in hand and coming to the aim.
A

loud
Äänekäs

clatter
kalina

of arms
aseiden

from below interrupted her.
He shook his head angrily, and heard a

clatter
kopinaa

of feet
askelten

behind, coming up the catwalk stairs.
Blanche heard a crash as the back door was flung open, followed by whoops and screams and the scraping of furniture, and then the

clatter
kopinaa

of feet
askelten

along the hall
eteisessä

.
The only sounds were the rustle of Dexter's pen on the evidence forms and the echoing

clatter
kolinaa

from the prison outside
ulkopuolella olevasta vankilasta

.
A

faint
vaimea

clatter
kolina

from the kitchen
Keittiöstä

indicated Mrs Brissett was just finishing up.
The doors on the landing behind Cardiff juddered open with a

loud
äänekkäästi

clatter
kolisten

.

click.n

There was a sharp

metallic
metallinen

click
naksahdus

and as Dan stood up, Patrick saw him slip the heavy pistol back into his pocket.
I asked Edwards whether putting this on for the unveiling -- maximization for the sponsor, the

click
naksahdus

and clack

of computer keys tapping
tietokoneen näppäinten

-- had been part of the deal.
There was a

click
naksahdus

and she'd gone, and I could hardly believe that I'd ever doubted her as a relay post.
The louder it is, the more distant the object it can detect and the

bats
lepakot

produce

clicks
naksahduksia

which, if translated into frequencies that we can hear, would sound as loud as a pneumatic drill.
The rest of the squad fell to one knee, and I heard the

smart
ripeän

click
naksahduksen

of rifle bolts
rihlapulttien

…
As I stepped down the steep treads I heard the

too loud
liian kovan

click
napsahduksen

of shoe leather
nahkakengän

on metal
metalliin

.
Below the soft throb of the music, his increased sense of hearing had picked up the

quiet
hiljaisen

click
napsahduksen

of the outer door to his private suite being closed
yksityiseen sviittinsä johtavan ulomman oven sulkemisesta kuuluvan

.
There was a

click
napsahdus

of the door
oven

as it closed behind her.
When they were left alone, a silence descended, broken only by the

click
kilahdus

of silver
hopean

against porcelain
porsliinia vasten

as Jake helped himself to sugar and stirred.
He had seen it happen, like a

click
napsahdus

of the fingers
sormien

, the start of life, when the foal opened its eyes and looked at him.
A dolphin is able to produce

sonar
ääniluotaimen

clicks
naksahduksia

by forcing air through special passages and sinuses in its head.
Below on the street the sobbing girl let the boy comfort her, then behind us there was a

click
naksahdus

from the balcony door
parvekkeen oven

.
At the third corpse there was a

faint
vaimeaa

click
naksahdus

, and she looked up as the music stopped.
The blade snapped open with a

soft
pehmeästi

click
naksahtaen

.
In both cases the sounds are audible to humans, not ultrasonic like the more specialized

bat
lepakon

clicks
naksahduksiin

.
Dolphins
Delfiinit

emit rapid trains of

high-pitched
korkeita

clicks
naksahduksia

, some audible to us, some ultrasonic.
The bat's
Lepakon

air-borne

clicks
naksahdukset

bounce off insects, whereas water-borne sounds pass through the tissues of a fish to the bone and swim bladder.

clink.n

Her mother and brother had departed to the kitchen from where Wexford could hear their muted whisperings and the

funereally careful
kolkon

clink
kilinän

of cups
kuppien

.
Soon the great awards of knighthoods give way to the decorations reserved for the civil and military services, and the shuffle of office workers is broken only by the occasional

clink
kalske

of a cavalryman's spur
ratsumiehen kannustimen

.
The

clink
kilahdus

of cup
kupin

against saucer
lautasta vasten

woke me.
It was still early and the bar seemed strange without voices and laughter and the

clink
kilahtelua

of ice
jään

in tall glasses
pitkissä laseissa

.
I enjoy the

clink
napsahtelusta

of our heels
korkojen

on linoleum
linoleumia vasten

, the perplexity of lifts and maps.
She heard him come quietly up the stairs; she heard the

clink
kolinaa

of vase
maljakon

and saucer
ja lautasen

.
She heard the

clink
kilinää

of the dishes being taken away
poisvietävien astioiden

, then, from the corner of her eye, glimpsed movement as Nathan leaned forward.
There was a

clink
kilinää

of keys

, and the door swung open.
There was a

coo.n

Drake's
Draken

cough.n

The incubation period of the virus is 24 to 48 hours and the infection is probably spread by droplets from the

coughs

and sneezes

of those who are already suffering
jo sairastuneiden

.
The man
Miehellä

had a

rasping
rohiseva

cough

that exploded from his lungs in noisy barks which often left him groaning and gasping for breath.
Mind you, ``she added with a

The chauffeur

creak.n

Creaks
Kitinät

and squeaks

can be caused by hot water or central heating pipes expanding as they heat up.
Huy listened to him descending them, then the

soft
pehmeä

creak
narahdus

and click

of the door
oven

.
Half a minute later

the airframe
lentokone

gave one final

creak
kirskahduksen

and his stomach fell away as the Hercules lifted off, whining into the night sky.
A car engine throbbed, people called greetings, there was the

creak
narina

of shutters opening
avautuvien luukkujen

in one flat and the sound of a radio in another.
Flora listened as she rode to the bits jingling, the

creak
narina

of leather
nahan

, the brush-brush of the horses' hooves through the grass, the croak of a carrion crow in the valley.
He turned towards Byrne's cork-blackened face and pressed his lips to his ear, where he whispered so softly that the

creak
narina

of his tongue
hänen kielensä

against teeth and palate
hampaita ja kitalakea vasten

was louder than the words themselves.
There was a

loud
äänekäs

creak
narina

like the noise of the gates as the door opened.

crunch.n

Afterwards he was haunted by the sound his footsteps had made in the brooding post-dawn silence, the

crunch
narskunta

and crackle

of his shoes breaking ice
jäätä murskaavien kenkiensä alla

.
She could almost hear the

crunch
rouskutuksensa

they
heidän

made.
The knife came again, and she chopped with both hands at Ma Katz's wrist, satisfied by the

crunch
räsähdyksestä

of breaking bones

.
There was a

grinding
kirskuva

crunch
räsähdys

of metal
metallin

as the front of the car telescoped, a second crashing sound as the car behind it rammed into the wreckage -- followed by a third.
As I walked on and the

eerie
aavemainen

crunch
räsähdys

, crunch sounded

behind me
takanani

, I was seized with terror and took to my heels staggering blindly.
A

terrible grinding
Kamala, kirskuva

crunch
räsähdys

struck at us like a solid barrier.

drone.n

The only other noise was from huge bumble-bees, flying like World War II plans, with a

low
matalalla

drone
surinalla

that dropped even lower as they shot over my nose.
From where we sat we could hear their occasional bursts of laughter and the

dim
vaimean

drone
surinan

of their voices
heidän ääntensä

, but the words themselves were lost to us.
And she finally ends by saying, `All I can look forward to now

is the
on

toneless
sävytön

drone
sorina

of the master's voice
isännän äänen

and the pendulum swing of his leg over the desk.
No sound, except the

lazy

drone
siritys

of the cicadas in the trees
puissa laulukaskaiden

.
Far off she heard the

drone
murina

of a tractor working late or set for home
kotia kohti matkaavan tai myöhään työskentelevän traktorin

.
Maxim had a torch which he used very cautiously, but at least they didn't have to whisper in the steady

drone
ropina

of rain
sateen

.

gasp.n

She
Hän

gave a

tiny strangled
pienen, tukahtuneen

gasp
huokauksen

and shuddered, feeling the waves of shock coursing along her veins.
Li Yuan's look of surprise as the Arab reared brought

gasps
syviä hengähdyksiä

as well as laughter

from all round
kaikkialta ympäriltään

.
She
Hän

sat up with a

gasp
huoahtaen

and blew her nose hard; then, since he was close, she rested her aching head against his ample stomach.
A little boy ran up, face dirty, clothes dishevelled, his breath coming in

short
hätäisesti

gasps
henkeään haukkoen

so he could hardly speak.
The terror bound her chest so that her breath came in the

short, dry, painful

.
There was a

let out a

mingling with the audible hiss of sharply indrawn breath.

giggle.n

`Diana saw her do it and

they

both burst out into

just like little girls.
Still he wasn't surprised at all at

my

when I dragged myself back to view it for a second time.
And the videotape of Cal and me playing Bottom and Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream last year, with

There were

giggles

Failing that, and

she

, Rosalba's face was such a picture of attention, at the Assumption.
A few mouths dropped open and then there were a few

growl.n

The

roaring, bellowing
karjuvat, möreät

growls
murinat

sometimes gave rise to screams of agony.
The calls were a cacophony of piercing screams,

low
matalien

growls
murahdusten

and a host of other noises.
Sid
Sid

gave a

growl
murahti

and informed that as I knew nothing about modern techniques he had brought `the lot.
He gave her a cool smile just as

the car

and leaped forward.
It

She

Laura stood, tall and lithe, glowing with sweat, listening to the

growl

of the kiln

Their
Niiden

change to a panting whine.

grunt.n

When they played a

low
matalan

grunt
örähdyksen

normally given in response to eagles, the majority of the monkeys looked up.
Finally

she
hän

made some

grunts
örähti

and said: `Globol obol ookle ogle globol gloogle gloo. ``)
We examined all the machinery, and then the midwife examined me in between

my
minun

grunts
murinani

and groans.
As it clicked on

she
hän

gave a

small
vähän

grunt
urahti

but didn't move.
Arty's voice thickened and blurred into

animal
eläimelliseksi

grunts
murinaksi

as he tried to speak and extend his tongue at the same time.
He
Hän

gave a

little
hiukan

grunt
urahti

of exasperation
ärtyneenä

.
The French boy
Ranskalainen poika

gave a

grunt
urahti

of exasperation

and fired almost casually from a standing position.
There was a moment's pause, then a swift movement, a sudden pressure, a

grunt
urahdus

from Melwas
Melwasin

, and some kind of growled answer.
Here, the

grunts
murina

, purrs, croaks and drums

of courting fish
kutevien kalojen

mingle with the snapping of shrimps and the crackling of barnacles.
But mostly he responded with an

angry
vihaisella

grunt
urahduksella

.
She
Hän

took the hands of those on either side of her, lowered her head and gave a

constipated
tukahtuneesti

grunt
urahti

.
Those

expiratory

grunts
murinat

were slowly increasing.

guffaw.n

He
Hän

gave another

loud
äänekkään

guffaw
naurunhohotuksen

and said condescendingly, `Shows how much you know, young Anne.
The question was innocent but it brought a great

guffaw
naurunhohotuksen

from the youth
nuorison keskuudessa

and he answered, `Ben Smith, Jones, or Robinson.
Punctuated by

his
hänen

own

guffaws
hohotuksestaan

, he continued: `Said `No, sorry, Mr Meadows; come this Wednesday I got to be out courting strong like.
Once, while waiting for Kerrison to arrive, Doyle had actually laughed, a

hearty

, filling the hollow.
Lady Merchiston
Lady Merchiston

let out a

cackling
kikattavan

guffaw

, and then noticed her godson's glance going from one to the other, his face a study.

gurgle.n

Somewhere near was the

gurgle
solinaa

and trickle

of water
veden

.
The children were watching TV peacefully, but Annie saw her as

she
hän

bobbed her head around the door, gave a

pleased
tyytyväisen

gurgle
jokelluksen

and started to scramble down.
The smell of the peat,

gurgle
solina

of water racing over boulders
lohkareiden yli juoksevan veden

and chuckle of flocks of fieldfares searching for mountain ash berries are as characteristic as the scenery itself.
She pronounces the word `damn ``with a little

gurgle
kikattaen

of amusement
huvittuneesti

: `Dem cheek.
By this time Irene was emitting a

steady
tasaisen

gurgle
kikatuksen

of contentment
tyytyväisen

, when she wasn't laughing her head off.
A baby separated from its mother also uses infrasound, and when suckling it emits infrasonic versions of

a human baby's

.

hoot.n

In the round before they attack, the valley is filled with

their
niiden

bizarre

hoots
vihellyksistä

and screeches, which they use in the same manner as bats to navigate and locate their prey.
Hoots
huudot

of triumph
Voiton

crashed through the shrinking kitchen like the trumpeting of elephants, saturating the air.
The silence of the night brought a feeling of unease; the normal rustlings of nocturnal creatures were absent and not even the

hoot
huuto

of an owl
pöllön

nor the choughing call of a pheasant disturbed the stillness.
Tantalisingly, at night, I might hear the

plaintive
haikea

hoot
huuto

of a tawny owl
kellanruskean pöllön

somewhere in the trees, beyond my little world.
The pair became used to the waves and

hoots
törähdyksiin

from passing motorists
ohiajavien motoristien

, trucks and even train drivers as they journeyed to the Mediterranean coast.
The small bats known as horseshoe bats have long been known to emit

long
pitkiä

,

fixed-pitch
kiinteätahtisia

hoots

rather than staccato clicks or descending wolf-whistles.
`Sixth place, ``

he
hän

said, with a

triumphant
voitokkaasti

hoot
huutaen

.
She peered beneath her hand at Sybil, then jumped as an

impatient
kärsimätön

hoot
huuto

sounded behind them.

hum.n

It rises to a

low
matalaksi

hum
hyräilyksi

again when they see it's only him.
In near-silence made even more oppressive by the

continuous
jatkuvalla

engine
moottorin

hum
hyrinällä

and the laboured breathing of the six androids, the transporter glided along the passageway.
This model
Tämä malli

gave off a

steady
tasaisen

hum
huminan

that allowed it to be used indoors without disturbance to neighbours.
The area seemed almost worse than the city he had left, and the metallic noise and

traffic
liikenteen

hum
huminan

that came up from it was more formidable.
The

hum
sorina

of conversation
keskustelun

in the lounge
aulassa

sounded restrained as Lee approached the door.
As the fire lights the JPT rises and a

hum
humina

of gradually increasing pitch and volume
vähitellen kasvavalla korkeudella ja voimakkuudella

begins to pervade the area.
Once in a while she heard footsteps and obscured voices, the

hum
surinaa

of drones
kuhnureiden

.
`Birds bees trees and flowers all talk to me incessantly louder than the

busy
vilkas

hum
sorina

of men
ihmisten

.
There was a

hum
sorina

of excitement
innostuksen

in the incident room that had not existed when Blanche and Dexter had left earlier that evening.
There was a

perpetual
ikuinen

hum
humina

from the ground below
alla olevasta maasta

, and occasional harsher metallic bangs and scrapes, and judders of thick silvery snakes that sped along faster than cars and disappeared into black holes in the ground.
There was an

excited
innostunut

hum
sorina

from the audience
yleisön keskuudessa

, and a forest of hands shot up to catch his eye.
It was then that they heard the long awaited sound, a

distant grinding
etäinen, pahaenteinen

hum
surina

like that of an angry wasp
vihaista ampiaista muistuttava

.
The space station, like every space station she'd ever been on, had had

its
sen

own almost imperceptible vibration and

hum
surina

.
The fridge suddenly switched itself on, the

buzzing
suriseva

hum
humina

sharpening the tension.

mew.n

She
Hän

was making a tiny, repetitive sound, a

little
pienen

mew
maukunan

, as if in response to a lover's touch.
Sounds such as traffic, footsteps and noise may be heard well, but sounds like the flute, telephone bell or

kitten's
kissanpojan

mew
maukuna

may be missed altogether.

moan.n

He gave the bad leg a gentle kick, to be rewarded with an

agonized
tuskallinen

moan
vaikerrus

and the information that it was certainly broken, probably in two or three places.
There were further

moans
vaikertaa

and groans at the old toper's repetition of an apparently well-worn story.
Zach
Zach

gave a

long ghostly
pitkän, aavemaisen

moan
vaikerruksen

and raised his hands.
The

moan
vaikerrus

of a sax
Saksofonin

, earnest voices, the rumble of laughter.
Loc
Loc

let out a little

moan
vaikerruksen

of anguish.
He
Hän

took a small mouthful from his plate then gripped at his stomach and emitted a

low
matalan

moan
vaikerruksen

.
She moaned, a

long, howling
pitkän, ulvovan

moan
vaikerruksen

, but there was an ecstasy in the sigh that followed.
She was about to turn around, when she heard a

low
matalan

moan
vaikerruksen

.

neigh.n

I stabled my own horse and was in the buttery when I heard screams, the crashing of hooves and

Vulcan's
Vulcanin

neighs
hirnahdukset

.

patter.n

They heard the

patter
töminän

of footsteps
askelten

and a whey-faced maid answered the door.
He heard the

patter
töminän

of feet
jalkojen

behind him and turned, his captive slid from his hands like an eel.
Outside Julia could hear the

patter
töminän

of rain drops
sadepisaroiden

on the back path
takapihan polkua vasten

.
He cocked his head and seemed to listen for a moment to the

endless
loputonta

mutter and

patter
töminää

of working moles
työmyyrien

.
As I hurried I heard the

scrabbling
kuopivan

patter
äänen

of the wolves closing in
lähestyvien susien

.
Ducking to put the van between them Maxim ran crouching his soft-soled shoes making the

barest
pientä

patter
rapinaa

on the rough but thank God dry paving.

peal.n

She then literally jumped in her seat as a huge

peal
jylinä

of thunder
ukkosen

crashed directly overhead.
Ramlal approached in fear, awed by the sounds of chanting and the

peal
jyly

of bells
kellojen

that rose above the endless mutter of devotees.
And suddenly she laughed, a

gay
iloinen

peal
remahdus

, refreshed by a whole day of escape from her selected cage.

peep.n

`Got to observe strict ARP, you see, Miss, though here we are gettin' on for five months of war and not a

peep
vilaustakaan

out of a Jerry plane
sakujen koneesta

.
Not a

peep
vilaustakaan

from the Treasury Solicitor
valtiovarainministeriön lakimiehestä

; the D-Notice Committee obviously didn't (notice, that is).

plash.n

The

plash
loiske

and glug

of amber liquid
kullankeltaisen nesteen

plop.n

There was a

plop
molskahdus

as it landed in the water, then it thrashed around wildly for a few seconds before settling down.
Three quiet days went past in the slow slap and

plop
molskahdus

of the river
joessa

.
They ate and drank, sitting tucked into long grass that screened them from the river; they could hear the flow of it, and the occasional

plop
molskahdus

of a fish
kalan

.
There was a

soft
pehmeä

`

plop
molskahdus

``and the blue light welled out of the mantle as he closed the door, deftly trapping the light inside.

purr.n

Sometime during the night, I was woken by my cold feet, a warm weight on my chest and the

loudest
kovaäänisin

purr
kehräys

I had ever heard
, jonka olin ikinä kuullut

.
The sound of the whistling faded, and the

purr
kehräys

of the car
auton moottorin

replaced it.
ST came to me and rubbed against my side, purring

his
sen

rattling
hurjaa

,

wheezing
vinkuvaa

purr
kehräystä

.
Guido had switched on the engine, and now, with a

soft
pehmeästi

purr
kehräten

,

the car
auto

headed out on to the road.
Silky hat all that could make

a baby
misun

purr
kehräämään

.
Do you know that

elephants
elefantit

`

purr
kehräävät

``?
As if on cue,

the car-phone
autopuhelin

gave a

discreet
vienon

purr
surinan

to punctuate Tom's passionate sentence, and he snatched it up as he braked at traffic-lights which had just turned red.

quack.n

It was an irresistible lure, like the

quack
vaakunta

of a decoy duck
leikkiankan

.
Five mallard shot past the tree in which he was hidden,

their
niiden

muttered
mumiseva

quacks
vaakunta

in mid-air soft as the sun that crept the way they were going and began to fill the lake with light.
Drake has whistling flight note, “ sostmieu ”, not unlike sound of some ducks' wing-beats;

duck
ankka

has a

laughing
nauraen

quack
kaakattaa

, “

ak-ak-ak
kvak-kvak-kvak

…
In spring drake has a curious crackling note, like a single match being rattled in a match box;

duck

has a

low

quack
kaakatus

.
Drake has a low moorhen-like weak nasal `gseee ``and in courtship a rather musical croak, and

duck
ankalla

a

rather hoarse
melko käheä

quack
kaakatus

.
One duck usually raises the alarm (a

deep
matala

quack
kaakatus

) and suddenly every eye on the jetty snaps open to follow the man across the bridge until out of sight.

rap.n

The

rap
kilinä

of coins falling on the staging overhead
yläpuolella olevalle lavastukselle putoavien kolikoiden

stopped.
Thus the performance lacked edges -- Williams's nagging rhythms needed the

rap
naputuksen

of an insistent beat
vaativan rytmin

to sustain their tension, and at times the music seemed to wash past, flabby rather than furious.
Before the school teacher could answer, there was another

rap
napautus

on the door
ovelle

and Beasley scampered in like an overgrown puppy, casting inquisitive glances at Jim Lancaster and the two police officers.
There was a

soft
pehmeä

rap
napautus

at the door.
It seemed she had only just drifted off when she was woken by a

sharp
terävään

rap
napautukseen

on the door
ovelle

and Nathan's impatient voice announcing, `Breakfast in five minutes!

rasp.n

The night was full of the

rasp
rahinaa

and scrape

of branches
oksien

as the wind made the limbs of the trees beat against one another.
She stood stock-still, panting, listening to the

harsh
kovaa

rasp
rahinaa

of her own breathing
oman hengityksensä

.
Even the

screeching
ujeltava

rasp
kirskuna

of a police hover forcing its slow way upstream
poliisin ilmatyynyaluksesta sen pyrkiessä hitaasti vastavirtaan

can scarcely cut the din.
The

rasp
ratina

of the zip going down
Alas vedetyn vetoketjun

was illogically loud in the utter silence of the night.
The

rasp
raavinta

of his beard stubble
Hänen parransänkensä

was a sweet pain.
She went behind the screen and Rachaela heard the familiar

rasp
raavinnan

of pencil
kynän

on paper
paperilla

.
The awning flew back with a

chainsaw
moottorisahan

rasp
rahinan myötä

, and a cascade of rainwater came down on her head.

roar.n

The other train
Toinen juna

swept past with a

roar
jylisten

and a deafening hiss of air.
Against the

roar
karjaisun

of rage
raivon

he waved for silence.
He
Hän

gave a

roar
karjaisun

of rage

, scrambled to his feet and turned round, his right arm raised.
Although the thunder and lightning had moved further off the horses were still in a very nervous state when the

roar
pauhu

of flames

over their heads drove them wild so that they were very difficult to handle.
Parking the pram I gave chase to the poor beast who, alarmed by

my
<empty>

savage
villiä

roar
karjuntaani

of maternal fury
äidinraivon aiheuttamaa

, had bolted.
No one else was in the garden and dense rows of leafless poplars damped the

grinding
kirskuvaa

roar
jyrinää

of the lorries on Am Treptower Park
Am Treptower Parkin kuorma-autojen

.
Apart from the few noises I made on the path, all I could hear was the very occasional and

distant
kaukainen

roar
jyrinä

of heavy trucks
rekkojen

on the road through town.
`One hundred and eighty, ``shouted the adjudicator, although his words were lost in the

Wembley
Wembleyn

roar

of the crowd

.
Beneath the hubbub there is the

distant
etäinen

roar
pauhu

of oil and gas gushing to the surface
öljyn ja kaasun pursutessa pintaan

.
A red flash ruddied the belly of a cloud; the noise followed almost immediately, the

roar
jylinä

of an explosion
räjähdyksen

bouncing in decreasing waves of sound between the clouds and the ravines.
Silently she waited for

the lion's
leijonan

roar
karjuntaa

.
With a

loud
äänekkäästi

roar
karjuen

,

the engine
Moottori

started.
The engine fired and she pushed her foot down on the accelerator so that the

fierce
raju

roar
karjunta

echoed her feelings of pent-up frustration.

rustle.n

It was 40 °s C in the shade and so quiet that all we heard was dust settling, the rattle of bones and the

rustle
kahina

of wings
siipien

.
He heard the

faint
vaimean

rustle
rapinan

of paper
paperin

, then Kirov grasped his wrist and pressed a bundle of folded money into his palm.
The night was calm and warm with just a

slight
vaimea

rustle
rapina

of a breeze
tuulenvireen aiheuttama

in the trees
puissa

.
But the kangaroo rat can hear the

faint
vaimean

rustles
ratinan

of the rattlesnake's scales moving over the sand
hiekan yli liikkuvan kalkkarokäärmeen

, and escape.
``I'm sure I heard the

rustle

The

The recorder stopped and I heard the

rustle

of paper being turned
käännettävän paperin

-- the music-stand.
Ranulf strained his ears, trying to ignore the sounds of the forest, the chatter of the birds and the

rustle
rapinan

of the wood creatures
puuolentojen

under the thick green bracken
paksun, vihreän sananjalan alla

.
The only sounds

were the
oli

rustle
rapina

of Dexter's pen
Dexterin kynän

on the evidence forms
todistelomakkeilla

and the echoing clatter from the prison outside.
The creaking of the ironing board, the crackle of corn-flakes and the

occasional
satunnainen

rustle
rapina

of the newspaper
sanomalehden

were the only sounds.
Blackness, the dank chill, the faint

rustle
rapina

of tiny creatures
pikkuisten olentojen

in the darkest corners
pimeimmissä nurkissa

-- it was terrifyingly familiar, threatening her very sanity.

scrape.n

There was a

scrape
raapaisu

as she brought a taper forth from a tin box and leaned towards the fire to light it.
Then the

scrape
raapaisu

of the blade
terän

against bone
luuta vasten

as he carved the letter `S ``into the dead mans' forehead.
For a while there was nothing but the click of ammunition, the

scrape
rahina

of boots
saappaiden

, and the stink of Woolley's rancour.
`I tell you it went down that last passage on the right, ``hissed Kring in a voice like the

scrape
rahina

of a blade

over stone
kiveen osuessaan

.
Then there was a noise from the rear of the house, the

scrape
narahdus

of a door being opened
avattavan oven

.

screech.n

But barn owls, famed in folklore for

their
niiden

eerie
aavemaisista

screech
kirkaisuista

and ghostly white plumage, are declining in Britain.
The sound of the shot was drowned by the

deafening
korviahuumaaviin

screech
kirkaisuihin

and roar

of the thing
olion

as its eye blew apart in a shattering viscous whirl of fluid and tissue.
The sounds of Danish mingled with those of knives drawn across a plate, the

screech

of jays

, and the buzz and hum that rose from within her and ousted her tranquillity.
Robyn
Robyn

let out a

screech
kirkaisun

of frustration

With a

screech
kirskuessa

of metal

Lighting another cigarette beneath his tree, listening to the

screech

The old woman

There was a pop as if someone had exploded a huge paper bag, a disappearing

When this was done briefly and gently, people laughed, shook the speaker and each other by the hand (with a

We recall Sonnet 129, with its bitter puns on `expence ``and `action, or the

For some time the only sound in the room was that of

There was a pleasant hum of talk and the

, for a number of smartly-dressed ladies of various ages were sitting about the room chatting and drinking tea.
At the sound of the clatter of wooden sticks and the
