froglike
Resembling a croaker
Froglike describes something resembling a frog in appearance, movement, or sound.
A froglike crouch suggests the hunched, ready-to-spring posture.
Froglike eyes are large and bulging.
The word often carries unflattering connotations when applied to people: his froglike features, a froglike voice.
