blats
Cries like lambs
Blats is the third-person singular of blat, meaning to make a harsh bleating or blaring sound.
Sheep blat, car horns blat, and people who complain loudly might be said to blat.
The word is onomatopoeic, imitating the abrupt, unpleasant noise it describes: The goat blats every time someone walks past its pen.
