(Strong's #214 — Verb — alalazo — al-al-ad'-zo )

an onomatopoeic word, from the battle-cry, alala, is used of "raising the shout of battle," Joshua 6:20; hence, "to make a loud cry or shout," e.g., Psalm 47:1; "to wail," Jeremiah 29:2; in the NT, in Mark 5:38 , of wailing mourners; in 1 Corinthians 13:1 , of the "clanging" of cymbals (AV, "tinkling").
