Have you ever wondered what a cat's meow sounds like in Japanese? How about the grumble of an empty stomach, the wail of a police car's siren or the crash of an ocean wave?
Japanese manga artists rely heavily upon onomatopoeia — sound-effect words — and this special entry in the best-selling "Kana de Manga/Kanji de Manga" language-learning series from Manga University is jam-packed with illustrated examples of those sounds (and more!) in action.
Featuring nearly 100 Japanese onomatopoeia and their English equivalents in categories such as "Humans," "Animals," "Machines" and "Nature." Japanese/English text.
Winner of the Saitama, Japan, Prefectural Government Business Innovation Award in 2007.
