Hmm, I can only remember Ron imitating the sound of the hooves to scare
Umbridge at the end of OotP, and maybe George imitating Percy in
DH: "Well, we do look to our prefects ..." etc. :-). There were also
other cases, but they are not exactly sound imitations - for example in
HBP, when Ginny does imitations of Ron and Harry at a Quidditch
practice ("Sectumsempra"), or Lynda's example of Ron doing "a cruel but
accurate impression" of Hermione in Transfiguration. Maybe you are
right and there are more, I just can't remember right now.
zanooda, who also doesn't have time to look through the books for more
examples :-)
