An air bubble is entrained by the impact of a drop on a water surface. Consequently sound is emitted. There are two categories of the bubble entrainment depending on the drop diameter dD and impact velocity Vimp. One is the regular entrainment where air bubbles are always pinched off, another is the irregular case where bubbles are trapped irregularly. In this paper we explore the mechanism of the irregular bubble entrainment and induced bubble sound.
