hydra's "Words that sound like what they are"

Add to my lists | Print this list

Fun words that sound like what they are… some of my favorite words.

After a recent move over the pond I have learned many new words that I’ve really liked the sound of – mostly because they are words that sound like what they are. I realised that these also exist in the American version of English, so I thought I’d write them down.

Can’t think of all many right now, but I’m sure my list will grow!
