Making a loud, harsh sound; honking or sounding like a trumpet.
From Middle English 'blaren,' possibly related to 'blare' (to cry out). May come from Old Norse origins or be onomatopoetic, imitating the harsh sound itself.
Blaring sounds like what it means—it has that harsh, brassy quality baked right into the pronunciation, making it a perfect word for loud, annoying noises!
