Gern geschehen! - You are welcome!

It’s quite difficult to find a perfect synonym for stertorously [in a noisy and stertorous manner; snoring harshly while breathing]

röcheln means also: ruckle and rattle, then what about:

“A woman was ruckling…” (Eine Frau röchelte ..) ?

Here are some synonyms & analogous words for stertorous that I 've found in my dictionary :

loud, stentorian, ear-splitting, hoarse, raucous, strident; harsh, rough

The noun “stertor” means: heavy snoring sound in respiration [from the Latin verb stertere = to snore]

Hoffentlich hilft Ihnen das weiter!
