clangored
Made metallic noise
Clangored is the past tense of clangor, meaning to make a loud, resonant, metallic sound—like bells ringing or metal striking metal.
The word suggests repeated or sustained noise rather than a single strike: Church bells clangored across the valley.
Literary and somewhat old-fashioned.
