Loud snoring happens when a person’s throat gets too relaxed while they are sleeping. Imagine drinking through a straw, if the straw is blocked or bent, you have to push harder for the drink to come out. That’s like loud snoring: the air has to fight through a narrow passage in the throat, making a noisy sound. Sometimes it’s just a little noise, but some people snore so loudly it feels like a thunderstorm!
Examples
- During a family vacation, the kids wake up because of their grandfather's snoring.
- The neighbor’s loud snore wakes up the whole street every morning.
