I wonder some onomatopoeia
Hi, i'm drawing something on a website and sometime i need appropriate sound effect.
I search so hard really really hard but that's not easy..
and now i'm looking for some onomatopoeia
1. the sound of ball flying
i guess the sound like 'pi-ooong' .... but very unnatural
2. the sound when you fall into water.
i gound 'plop' is that right to use when people fall into the water?
3. when you're sneezing
is that sound 'atishoo' ??

1. sometimes we use 'whoosh' for the effect of something very fast flying by you.
2. for falling into water, 'splash'
3. and for sneezing I've seen it written 'ah-choo' or 'achoo'
For what purpose do you need these kinds of words for? Perhaps with a certain purpose that you need, there are better specified words for these situations.
