thwump
Heavy landing sound
Thwump is an imitative word for a dull, heavy impact—softer than a thud, more substantial than a thump.
It suggests something weighty landing on a yielding surface: The cat jumped down from the counter with a thwump.
As a verb, to thwump is to make or cause this sound: He thwumped the stack of papers onto my desk.
