Onomatopoeia are words that suggest or resemble sounds<\/strong>. In simpler terms, they are sound effects. You see them in comic books where things go \u2018Wham\u2019, \u2018Bam\u2019, and \u2018Smash\u2019. Most likely you\u2019ve learned some of them at a young age like how cows go \u2018moo\u2019 and cats go \u2018meow\u2019. They\u2019re the reason Ylvis\u2019 What Does The Fox Say?<\/em> was stuck in your head for a while.<\/p>\n

There doesn\u2019t seem to be a shortage of sound effects. What\u2019s more, they differ from language to language. This is what fascinated and inspired PhD physics student James Chapman<\/strong>. Hailing from Manchester, UK, the 25-year-old would scour the Internet for various onomatopoeia before compiling them and illustrating them into cute comics<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
