That depends completely on your categorization parameters.
Is it loudness? Then you can distinguish between quieter sounds and louder sounds.
Is it sound source? Then it is much more problematic. The first division could be speech-sounds and non-spoken sounds. But it completely depends on your focus. You could also categorize sounds from material, e.g. wooden sounds, glass sounds and so on. There are endless categories here.
Is it the sound as a percieved acoustic entity? Then you could categorize sounds as "sounds with a sharp attack", "pulsing sounds", "high frequent sounds" etc.
Luigi Russolo classified "noise-sounds" (not musical tone sounds) into six groups:
1: Roars, Thunderings, Explosions, Hissing roars, Bangs, Booms
2: Whistling, Hissing, Puffing
3: Whispers, Murmurs, Mumbling, Muttering, Gurgling
4: Screeching, Creaking, Rustling, Buzzing [5], Crackling, Scraping [5]
5: Noises obtained by beating on metals, woods, skins, stones, pottery, etc.
6: Voices of animals and people, Shouts, Screams, Shrieks, Wails, Hoots, Howls, Death rattles, Sobs
That's one example of many.
In foley sound recording the categories are more practical such as:
Feet (foosteps), Moves (sounds from clothes) and Specifics (e.g. a coffee cup)
