Bellow
American novelist's surname
Bellow means to roar or shout in a deep, powerful voice—the sound a bull makes, or an angry person: He bellowed orders across the field.
The word suggests volume and force rather than pitch.
A bellow is such a sound.
Bellows (always plural in this sense) is a device that pumps air, used to fan flames or power organs.
