Attention-getting sound (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cough

(Other definitions for cough that I've seen before include "Respiratory disorder" , "Sudden expulsion of air from the lungs" , "Noise from the throat" , "Cold symptom" , "Confess (sl.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
