The sound of aword imitates its meaning?

You're talking about onomatopoeia, the use of words that imitate the sounds they represent.

Here are some examples:

* Buzz - The sound of a bee

* Meow - The sound of a cat

* Sizzle - The sound of food frying

* Crash - The sound of something breaking

* Bang - The sound of a door slamming

While onomatopoeia doesn't literally make the sound, it evokes the sound in our minds, creating a more vivid and engaging experience for the listener.
