sloshing
Waves in container
Sloshing is the sound and motion of liquid moving around inside a container or space.
Water sloshes in a half-full bucket when you walk.
Beer sloshes in a glass carried unsteadily.
The word captures both the audible splash and the visible surge: I could hear liquid sloshing around in the tank.
To slosh through something is to wade noisily: sloshing through puddles.
