click sound
Brief mechanical noise
A click sound is a short, sharp noise made by two hard surfaces striking together or separating abruptly: the click sound of a light switch, the click sound of heels on tile.
The phrase is often redundant—click alone usually suffices—but appears when emphasizing the auditory quality or distinguishing the sound from the action that produces it.
