Adenoidal is a word used to describe a sound that is produced when speaking due to the resonance of the voice in the nasal cavity. There are several synonyms that can be used to describe this sound, including nasal, pinched, nasalized, snuffling, and honking. Each of these words conveys the same basic idea, but some may be more appropriate for describing certain types of sounds. For example, nasalized may be a better choice when describing the sound of a voice that is overly nasal, while snuffling might be a good choice for describing the sound of someone who is congested. Regardless of the specific synonym used, all of these words describe sounds that are characterized by an obvious nasal resonance.
