(of the way in which one speaks) in whispers / (of the way in which one speaks) in a hushed voice / (of the way in which one speaks) murmuringly / (of the way in which one speaks) mumblingly / (of the way in which one speaks) in a subdued voice / (of the way in which one speaks) in an undertone

(of the way in which a person behaves) by being off in space / (of the way in which a person behaves) by doing nothing / (of the way in which a person behaves) absent-mindedly / (of the way in which a person behaves) blankly / (of the way in which a person behaves) idly / (of the way in which a person behaves) vacantly

(of the way in which a small object falls down) with a clink / (of the way in which a small object falls down) with a plink

(of the way in which one bites into something) by opening the mouth and gulping it

as if lapsing into / as if falling into
