What does onomatopoeia mean?

Onomatopoeia is the formation of a word from a sound associated with what it describes, such as "buzz," "hiss," "meow," "moo," and "tick-tock."

Here's a breakdown:

* Onomatopoeia: The use of words that imitate sounds.

* Imitative Words: Words that sound like the things they represent.

* Sound Symbolism: The use of sound to create a particular effect.

Essentially, onomatopoeia uses words that sound like the noises they represent, making your writing more vivid and engaging.
