snorting — the forceful exhalation through the nostrils, especially of a horse
This noun appears in Job's magnificent poem about the war horse, whose snorting is terrible. The word captures the sound and fury of a spirited stallion—nostrils flaring, breathing heavily, eager for battle. It's onomatopoetic in feel, evoking the horse's powerful presence. The term derives from a verb meaning to snort or breathe heavily, emphasizing the horse's barely-restrained energy.
