Onomatopoeia
{{dicdef|July 2014}}

'''Onomatopoeia''' (or '''onomatopœia''') is when a [[word]] imitates (sounds like) a natural sound. Words similar to ''woof'', ''click'', ''buzz'', ''crackle'', ''bang'', ''boom'', ''moo'', ''crash'', ''shh'' and ''squelch'' are examples of onomatopoeia. 

''[[Cuckoo]]'' is a good example of an onomatopoeic name.
