Voice or sound?
I want to express the meaning of "making noise with one's vocal cord with no sense" , as someone is crying.
Could I simply say make nonsense voice?
We can use "make sound", but can we use "make voice"?

No, we don't say "make (a) voice". You could say "make a loud/strange noise", for example.

Re: Voice or sound?
Thanks
But I’m still a little confused.
If I hit the table heavily use a hammer, do I make a loud noise?
Is there any difference between these two type of noise? Could I stress that the noise is from human voice not objects in English?

Yes, the hammer made a loud noise. The children are making a lot of noise, that is, they are screaming, singing loudly, banging toys,etc.
