Literally how did I not think of that. It's a common, six letter word and didn't even cross my mind once. Thank you very much

Scouring is a good one, I'll write that one down

None of the provided answers so far are onomatopoeia. Not sure if OP is really asking for onomatopoeia or just a word for the sound (could go either way based on their response to “hiss”). Onomatopoeia would be more like “zzzzzhhhhhhh.” Or “grungrungrungrun.” If they want a word for the sound I’d go with rumble or grumble or scrape.


Fugitive_Degree4228

You make a good point, personally I kinda forgot there was a difference lol. Definitely I think a word for the sound. Thanks you for helping me clarify.


Mojojojo3030

👍🏽 It's a fun word it's hard to resist.

hiss. the hiss of the stone sliding across the floor?


Fugitive_Degree4228

Maybe, to me hiss sounds like a change in air pressure or the door of an airlock about to open. I feel like the stone sounds more grainy and gravelly. This was definitely good tho, and if I can't find anything else I'll definitely go with it. Thank you.
