English term or phrase: screeched

"My chair screeched and spun across the floor, before it slammed against the wall."

Segundo o Michaelis, "screech" significa "gritar alto", o que não cabe neste contexto, por se tratar de uma cadeira.

screech: to utter or make a harsh, shrill cry or sound (Dictionary.com)
