How to use "Caterwauling" in context?
Most people know the term "cat-caterwaul" from lullabies. This is a type of singing in which a woman sings in a high-pitched, plaintive voice to evoke an emotional response in her listener. While the term is most commonly associated with female singers, it can be used by men. Caterwauling is considered a musical form with origins in the rural Southern United States.
