An onomatopoeia is a figure of speech in which a word’s pronunciation closely resembles the sound it represents.

These words are used to imitate or mimic natural sounds, noises, or actions, adding vividness and sensory appeal to language. Common examples include words like “buzz,” “meow,” “hiss,” and “bang.”
