At the market, everyone knew him as the patterer who could sell anything with his rapid, glib chatter.

The patterers at the street fair attracted attention with their rapid-fire pitches and theatrical banter.

Late at night, I listened to the patterings on the roof and felt strangely comforted.

While we worked, rain pattered softly against the window, creating a comforting rhythm.

The patters of rain on the roof helped her sleep.

She sat by the window, listening to the rain pattering on the roof.

At dawn, the pattering on the tin roof sounded like a pattern of soft, uneven taps in a low register.

The loose shingles patter on the roof every time the wind picks up.

The gentle patter of rain on the window soothed the anxious child.

The patter at the shelter comforts every anxious kitten with a gentle touch.
