Jolt, zap, fizz, pop, crackle. (those are words I think of to describe your being STRUCK by lightning)

∙ 14y agoAnother word for lightning could be Thunder.
Thunder is not exactly the same thing as lightning although the two are connected; thunder is a sound made by lightning. The only alternative word for lightning that I can think of is spark. Lightning is actually a very large spark.
