roared
Made lion sounds
Roared is the past tense of roar.
A lion roars, an engine roars, a crowd roars—all produce loud, deep, prolonged sounds.
Fire roars as it consumes.
To roar with laughter is to laugh loudly and heartily.
Something that roars past moves swiftly with a rushing sound: The motorcycle roared down the highway.
