This is good. Did you purposely not punctuate?

This poem has a great concept. The grammar and punctuation stop it from reaching its potential. Let me know if you want help with that.

4. Words Related to Air – Because air doesn’t really make a sound unless it blows through something, these words describe the sounds of air blowing through things or of things rushing through the air. 'Whisper' is on this list and not the voice list because we do not use our voices to whisper. We only use the air from our lungs and the position of our teeth, lips and tongues to form audible words.

The concept of onomatopoeia words can be difficult to understand without examples. Examples give you the chance to better understand the onomatopoeia concept and to see and sound out actual words.

The following examples have been grouped according to how they are used.

We have one more "sound effect" to discuss. Then we will be open to questions. Thanks for sticking with us. I know it was long.

Onomatopoeia: hehe. I love to say this word!

Onomatopoeia is the use of words that create the sounds they describe.

Words like buzz, hum, clank, and crash represent a sound.

Listen for the sound of horse hoofs repeated in “The Highwayman” by Alfred Noyes:

Tlot-tlot; tlot-tlot! Had they heard it? The horse hoofs ringing clear;
Tlot-tlot, tlot-tlot, in the distance? Were they deaf that they did not hear?
