Today, I googled, and could find the terms, like dip and plop.



Is there any word when we pour water into the glass, and we hear the sound produced within a bottle?




As I poured myself a drink, I listened to the water ______ into my empty glass.

    Just FYI, neither "dip" nor "plop" describes that.

    FWIW all the answers refer to the kind of noise produced when the water comes out alternately with air going in to replace it, which is not what your image depicts. (AFAIK there is no word for the sound of a smooth pour like in the image, probably because it's so quiet you just hear the water landing in the glass.)

    The word dip is not onomatopoeic, it describes the action of immersing, or lowering something in liquid. You dip (or dunk) a biscuit in a cup of tea, for example. You dip your toes in the sea if you're afraid it is too cold. The water from a receptacle (bottle, can, basin, etc.) does not dip, it "pours" or "flows".

You can try glug.




glug (ɡlʌɡ) n

a word representing a gurgling sound, as of liquid being poured from a bottle or swallowed

    Isn't it that the glug is a sound produced within our throat amid during water.

    That is the sound of a liquid passing through a narrow opening, whether it be glass, plastic, ceramic, or flesh. Note that this particular definition says "... being poured from a bottle or swallowed." It can go either way, which means it works in either context.

    Onomatopoeia is the formation of words that mimic sounds that occur in the world, such as buzz for the sound a bee or fly makes, or splat for the sound of a wet item smacking on a hard surface (smack itself is probably onomatopoeic as well).

    There was a cartoon with Daffy Duck where at some point he has to pretend he's a champagne bottle, and the waiter 'pours' Daffy, and for Daffy to sound realistically like liquid pouring out of a bottle he says "skoykill, skoykill, skoykill", pronounced like that other river through Philadelphia, the Schuykill.

Gurgle




Make a hollow bubbling sound like that made
by water running out of a bottle.




Gurgle (Oxford)

    +1 This answer fits my usage as a Native American English speaker. If I were to write my own definition I would say Gurgle is "the sound produced by the water running into other water, or bouncing off the sides of an open vessel." Whereas, I would define Glug as "the sound produced when an air bubble enters the mouth of the bottle that is being emptied of a liquid."

Definition from Google. I like this word, it sounds a little less vulgar than glug.



burble
verb
1.
make a continuous murmuring noise.
"the wind burbled at his ear"
synonyms: gurgle, bubble, murmur, purr, whirr, drone, hum, rumble
"two fountains were burbling outside"

  • To burble is what the Jabberwock does as it comes whiffling through the tulgey wood.

Slosh - softer than splash, and also very applicable to drinks.

    Can you cite some examples of this usage from books, articles, etc.?
    – Jay Elston
    Aug 21 at 15:49










  • @JayElston For usage, you can try 'heard sloshing into glass' or similar in Google Books. Liquid is frequently heard sloshing out of, into and in containers. Sometimes it's just sloshing, without being heard, as it can also be felt or seen doing that.

I personally would probably use the word cascade.




Verb 1. (of water) pour downward rapidly and in large quantities.



Usage examples::



  • a."water was cascading down the stairs"


  • "rain cascaded from the roof"


synonyms: pour, gush, surge, spill, stream, flow, issue, spurt.

      +1 This answer fits my usage as a Native American English speaker. If I were to write my own definition I would say Gurgle is "the sound produced by the water running into other water, or bouncing off the sides of an open vessel." Whereas, I would define Glug as "the sound produced when an air bubble enters the mouth of the bottle that is being emptied of a liquid."

    make a continuous murmuring noise.

    Slosh - softer than splash, and also very applicable to drinks.

    • @JayElston For usage, you can try 'heard sloshing into glass' or similar in Google Books. Liquid is frequently heard sloshing out of, into and in containers. Sometimes it's just sloshing, without being heard, as it can also be felt or seen doing that.

      I know I could do that. So could anyone else. But citing references gets upvotes -- set this answer for an example.

    I personally would probably use the word cascade.




    Verb 1. (of water) pour downward rapidly and in large quantities.



    Usage examples::



    • a."water was cascading down the stairs"


    • "rain cascaded from the roof"


    synonyms: pour, gush, surge, spill, stream, flow, issue, spurt.
