More at overtly loud laughter, like some people do, or the insane laughter of the stereotypical evil villain in an old horror movie...........

Used in a sentence.....
Those who, not being committed to the rigid dogmas of the academy, as the noted explorer Sir Richard Francis Burton, have recognized Mount Cameroon in the mountain mentioned by Hanno, have been greeted with cacchinations.

This is such a perfect descriptive word-resistance is futile...
Kamala’s strange cachinnation
Whether planned or involuntary
Is almost always inappropriate
As well as being rude and scary
She cackles as much as Hillary-
Could her PR people please ask
Her husband to put some duct tape
On her mouth, under that mask?
