roars
Pride's loud cries
Roars is the plural of roar—loud, deep, prolonged sounds like those made by lions, crowds, or engines.
A stadium roars with cheers; thunder roars across the sky.
As a verb, roars describes the act of making such sounds: The engine roars to life, She roars with laughter.
To do something in roars suggests waves of loud response: The audience erupted in roars of approval.
