B1+-C1 Onomatopoeia helps bring vividness and realism to writing 1
Learning onomatopoeia (words like barked, buzzed, chimed, pitter-pattered, and whistled) is essential because it helps students vividly describe sounds, making their writing and speech more engaging and expressive. These words mimic real-life sounds, adding a sensory dimension to storytelling or descriptions (e.g., "The leaves rustled in the wind"). They are widely used in literature, poetry, and everyday communication to create atmosphere and bring scenes to life. Mastering onomatopoeic words also enhances students� creativity and ability to connect language with the sounds of the world around them. First, students need to familiarise themselves with the 25 words and their meaning. Then they read the sentences to see which one is needed to complete the gap-fill. Answers on page 2.
