snores
Sleeper's nasal racket
Snores are the rough, rattling sounds a person makes while breathing during sleep, caused by vibration of soft tissue in the throat.
The verb snore describes making these sounds: He snores so loudly I can hear him through the wall.
Figuratively, a snore is something tedious or boring: The movie was a total snore.
