snort

Pig's sharp exhale

Snort is the sound of air forced sharply through the nose—what horses do naturally and humans do to express contempt, amusement, or disbelief: She snorted at his excuse.

A snort of laughter escapes involuntarily.

To snort drugs is to inhale them through the nose: snorting cocaine.

A snort is also a quick drink of liquor: a snort of whiskey.
