Apstrakt

The prime aim of this paper is to define the smallest unit (onomatope) of imitative sound symbolism or onomatopoeia, and provide a classification and categorization of sound symbolic meanings of English onomatopoeic words. The analysis of English onomatopes has resulted in seven onomatopoeic categories: abrupt sound, resonant tone, high tone, low tone, loud tone, harsh sound and sharp/shrill sound, which are devised according to the acoustic qualities of English sound symbolic phonemes. It is also evident that individual sound-symbolic phonemes of English combine, thus achieving a cumulative imitative effect.
