choking
For danbooru purposes, refers only to asphyxiation (and usually coughing) caused by something inside the windpipe/neck blocking or restricting the airflow.
A strangle is not a choke. A strangle is from the outside, a choke is from the inside.
Think "choking on food" and "went down the wrong way".
