Whoosh There Goes An Onomatopoeia
For seemingly no reason, my mind wandered to the word onomatopoeia. You know words that are pronounced like the sound one might imagine they would make.
Woof. Meow. Cock-A-Doodle Do. Three of many. Of course, examples extend beyond the animal world. Words found every day and not-so-often.
I was thinking of the topic of onomatopoeia when I saw yet another clickbait ad. Both my mind and my laptop mouse didn't react with an Eek but went in the direction of click. An onomatopoeia. The ad and the moment went away in a whoosh. Gone. Thankfully, so is today's discussion of onomatopoeia. Onto more pondering...perhaps paradox.
