hee-haw
Loud asinine sound
Hee-haw is the braying sound a donkey makes—a distinctive two-toned call alternating between a high wheeze and a low grunt.
The word also describes loud, coarse laughter resembling this sound: His hee-haw of a laugh carried across the bar.
As a verb, to hee-haw is to bray or laugh boisterously.
