onomatopœia is the process of creating a word that
phonetically imitates, resembles, or suggests the sound that it describes. As such words are
uncountable nouns, onomatopoeia refers to the property of such words.
e.g. Bang,
Oink, Pow, Crash, Microwave

Probably the gayest word in the english dictionary. It is one of few words that has 4
vowels in
succession. Wow isnt that amazing? But on the other hand it is when a word sounds the way it is
spelt...
What a gay word
Example:
Hmmm this word doesnt sound like the way it is
spelt...
Damien is a really big fuckin gay...
Damien sounds like 'Daymeeun'
Really sounds like 'Rirtly' (Sort of)
The way in which onomatopoeia is spelt sounds like 'uyfhgfdsffvgfgh'
