To create a onomatopoeia I need to know what on earth it means. After all I am just a science student the intricacies of language are beyond me.
I learn that onomatopoeia is a noun that means
1. Formation of a word as cuckoo or boom by imitation of the sound made by or associated with its reference.
2. A word so formed
3. Rhetoric the use of imitative and naturally suggestive word for rhetoric effect.
Interesting!?! Yet, what shall I create, ping, bing , ding dong, boom. pitter patter are all taken up.
Boo-hoo over used.
Pit-pat also over used.
Zip-zap can I come up with something, cheep-cheep chirps the bird try whew that’s my chirping. Zzz I give up the cool, breeze the lullaby by the droning of the bee’s are knocking me to sleep. Zzzzzzz.
