Words Related to Air
Because air doesn't really make a sound unless it blows through something,
these words describe the sounds of air blowing through things or of things
rushing through the air. "Whisper" is on this list and not the voice list
because we do not use our voices to whisper. We only use the air from our lungs
and the position of our teeth, lips and tongues to form audible words.
