Hi, there.

Look at the following sentence:
A loud voice makes trouble.

Is this sentence possible?

In my opinion the sentence should be "A loud voice gives us (some / a lot of) trouble."

What do you think?

Are there any other sentences to express this kind of meaning?

I'm waiting for your answers.

Thanks.

I think the sentence is all right. It seems to mean that a loud voice creates trouble / problems for the person with the loud voice, probably because high volume is associated with aggressiveness.
