Onomatopoeia for throat clearing: How is it useful?

Why use a clear throat? Two friends make fun of her boss as he tries to walk in the door. She stands still, listens, and then clears her throat to say “I’m here” and then snorts in her sleep.

  • What is a “devil onomatopoeia”?
  • How can I express this in writing?

What are some good to read things before you get a result, I won’t have to deal with anything ridiculous.

Ahem is neither, but not both. If Ahem is said “I say ahem, I say” it is an exclamation. What is the exact equivalent of British “Hem hem!” If ahem replaces, in a sentence, the sound of the clearing of the throat, it is onomatopoeic.
