Question

"The Raven" uses the sound device onomatopoeia. Give an example of onomatopoeia from the poem and briefly explain your answer.​

Answer 1

"tinkled," "shrieked" and "flitting."

Step-by-step explanation:

"The Raven" has several instances of onomatopoeia, including the words "tinkled," "shrieked" and "flitting." While some believe that the raven's call of "Nevermore!" in the poem was supposed to be an onomatopoeia, it does not actually resemble a real raven's call.
