rasping
의미: Harsh, grating, and rough in sound, as if produced by friction or scraping; coarse and abrasive to the ear.
Rasping derives its force from the physical image of a rasp — a coarse file used on wood or metal. Applied to voices, it suggests hoarseness, dryness, or damage: the rasping voice of a heavy smoker, or the rasping breath of someone in respiratory distress. In literary and journalistic writing, it evokes discomfort and physicality. The word can also function as a verb form ('his voice rasped') for more active description.
