skrɛx
The Scottish Word: skraich with its definition and its meaning illustrated and captioned with the word used in context in the Scots language and in English.

The Predator Stun.

I am not a fan of little girls who piercingly screech in delight or distress at every little thing that excites them.

Or use it to cow their parents.

Isn’t it a noise that should be reserved to stun dangerous predators?

Rather than squandered in idle excitement?
