Nội động từ
Số nhiều: howlsQuá khứ: howledPhân từ 2: howledV-ing: howling
This word evokes a raw, primal energy that transcends simple noise. It suggests a sound that is uncontrolled and visceral, often associated with deep emotional states like grief, intense loneliness, or predatory instinct. It is far more haunting and sustained than a scream or a shout. In a social context, the term shifts toward a sense of uncontrolled amusement. When people howl with laughter, it implies a loud, breathless, and contagious reaction that fills a room, moving the word from a place of sorrow to one of exuberant joy.
