H = cos (wt - kz) describes a wave travelling in the z-direction with angular frequency w and propagation constant k.
The frequency is w / 2pi and the speed of the wave is w/k.
That is a mathematical way to describe a wave.

What are ways to describe a wave?
Waves can be described by:frequency/periodspeedintensitywavelengthamplitudepressureshapedecibelsHertzphonssonesmelsIf you are looking for adjectives that can be used to illustrate or depict a wave, I suggest you ask another question with the type of wave you're looking to describe (soundwave, ocean wave, Miss America's wave, wave of emotion, waves in my hair, a sway, radio wave, light wave, electromagnetic wave, etc.)
If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.
