Grog

Grog (as in a pirate’s beverage). When you say it, your throat catches at the end and you feel like a grunting pirate whose throat is sore from swallowing too much salt water and is about to chug a large tankard of ginger beer and rum (what I imagine true grog to be). It is succinct, for those swashbucklers who are too busy sword fighting or raising the Jolly Roger to engage in multisyllaby, but is nevertheless nice and illustrative.
