bzzz
Electric current sound
Bzzz represents the sound of buzzing—bees, electrical devices, vibrating phones, or anything producing a continuous humming noise.
The spelling varies by length: bz, bzz, bzzzz.
Often used to convey that a phone is vibrating: Bzzz. "Who's texting you?" The word mimics the actual sound, with more z's suggesting longer duration.
