GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Other / Onomatopeia
Spanish term or phrase: Ras
Here's one which may be staring-you-in-the-face obvious, but I can't find it.

Any comic fans out there who can tell me what the sound would be for slitting your throat? Of the bang, whoosh variety.

A character in a light opera suggests that someone is going to do this to him.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

I'm putting non-PRO.
