onomatopoeia
noun
on·o·mato·poe·ia ˌä-nə-ˌmä-tə-ˈpē-ə 
-ˌma-
1
: the naming of a thing or action by a vocal imitation of the sound associated with it (such as buzz, hiss)
onomatopoeically adverb
or onomatopoetically
Did you know?
Onomatopoeia came into English via Late Latin and ultimately traces back to Greek onoma, meaning "name," and poiein, meaning "to make." (Onoma can be found in such terms as onomastics, which refers to the study of proper names and their origins, while poiein gave us such words as poem and poet.) English speakers have only used the word onomatopoeia since the mid-1500s, but people have been creating words from the sounds heard around them for much longer. In fact, the presence of so many imitative words in language spawned the linguistic bowwow theory, which postulates that language originated in imitation of natural sounds.
