"Growling" is not uncommon.

Sometimes you hear a squiggly gastric gurgle. I don't think it has a name; but it ought to have.

As far as I'm concerned, you've just named it. That could be only one thing.

Croaking is not something I've ever heard used in this context. Frogs croak.

Thank you all very much.

Can any one write out the sound? "Krook" "Krook"??

How do we know how to write those kinds of sounds out? One has to have to see and use them more often to know when and how to use and write those kinds of words? I see some sounds for other things written in prints and rarely I do see them spelt differently.

eg,

Moo moo

Hi Anon,

That person is "high maintenance" if it's a friend, and a "micro-manager" if it's your boss.

In the future, please start a new thread for a new question that doesn't relate to the prior question. Thanks.
