roarings
Deep thunderous sounds
Roarings is the plural of roaring—loud, deep sounds like those made by lions, engines, or crowds.
The word often appears in descriptions of multiple sources producing such sounds: the roarings of traffic and construction.
In older religious or literary contexts, roarings may describe cries of anguish or spiritual torment: the roarings of a troubled soul.
