    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm a "KMT" queen. I get so easily irritated, so I'm forever hissing. It's a sound that's made to express annoyance, disgust, disappointment, disapproval etc. It's not an actual word that is spelt. Jamaicans are hilarious.

      true but we have onomatopoeia for so many other sounds. "bow wow" "ha ha", it's an interesting thought experiment to spell teeth sucking a sound that's equally socially important

    African people do this as well. Look up some “in an African house” videos and you will hear them do it as well.
