1 HUM: "To hum" is to sing with closed lips without articulating words. "To a hum a tune" is very common combination of words. Example: I often HUM A TUNE when I wash the dishes!
1 CLICK: "To click" is to produce a percussive, rhythmical sound. "To click" is not usually associated with terms that involve pitch such as "tune" or "melody".
1 BEAT: "To beat" is to produce a percussive, rhythmical sound. "To beat" is not usually associated with terms that involve pitch such as "tune" or "melody".
1 BLOW: We don't usually say "to blow a tune". Even when talking specifically about an instrument that is "blown" like a saxophone, it is still very unusual!
1 TAP: "To tap" is to produce a percussive, rhythmical sound. "To tap" is not usually associated with terms that involve pitch such as "tune" or "melody".
2 CLICK: "To click one's fingers" is to strike the thumb and (middle) finger together to make a sharp, snapping sound. Example: The teacher CLICKED HIS FINGERS to attract the attention of the pupil. People often "click their fingers" rhythmically when singing or listening to music.
2 HUM: "Humming" involves the mouth. Other parts of the body, like the fingers or legs, cannot "hum" (unless of course you are an insect!).
2 BEAT: Sorry, we do not "beat our fingers".
2 BLOW: "Blowing" involves the mouth. Other parts of the body, like the fingers or legs, cannot "blow".
2 TAP: It is of course physically possible to "tap one's fingers", but it is not a common combination of words, and we do not usually "tap our fingers" to music.
3 TAP: "To tap one's foot" is to move one's foot rhythmically to music, usually following the beat or tempo. Example: I can't help TAPPING MY FOOT to samba music! If you "tap your foot" to something, it generally means that you like the music.
3 CLICK: "Clicking" is associated with the fingers, we cannot "click our feet".
3 BEAT: We don't usually say "beat our feet". It's just wrong!
3 BLOW: "Blowing" is forcing air through the lips. We only "blow" feet if someone's shoes are on fire!
3 HUM: "humming" is a sound produced by the mouth. It is impossible "to hum your feet"!
4 BLOWING: "To blow" is to put one's lips into a circle and force air through them. Example: Xavier BLEW on his soup because it was too hot! "Blowing" is the action that makes wind instruments (like flutes) produce sound. A "horn" is a type of brass instrument.
4 CLICKING: "To click" is to produce a percussive sound with your fingers. We use our mouth (and breath) to sound a horn!
4 BEATING: "To beat" is to produce a percussive sound, usually with a stick or our hands. We use our mouth (and breath) to sound a horn!
4 HUMMING: We do not "hum" to make an instrument sound. "Humming" is making music with your mouth with your lips closed. Example: Everyone thinks that I look like Luke Skywalker: sometimes people in the street HUM the theme of Star Wars when I walk by!

5 BEAT: "To beat" is to strike (something) forcefully and repeatedly. "To beat a drum" is to "sound a drum". A drum is basically a frame (usually cylindrical) with a membrane (such as an animal skin) stretched over it. You hit it and it makes a noise! "To beat a drum" is a very common combination of words. Example: Most drummers use a stick to BEAT THEIR DRUMS, however, I play the tom-toms, so I BEAT them with my hands!
5 CLICKED: We don't "click" drums. "Clicking" is usually a sound produced with the fingers.
5 HUMMED: We can't "hum drums". "Humming" is a sound produced with the mouth.
5 BLEW: "Blowing" is forcing air through the mouth. You have to blow VERY hard to make a drum produce sound!
