Answer:

Onomatopoeia

Step-by-step explanation:

Onomatopoeia (from Greek onoma (name) and poiein (to make)) is a figure of speech which involves the creation of words that resemble the sound they represent. These words mean nothing more than the sound they make. Common examples of onomatopoeia are the sounds animals make. Clang! clang!, the sound that comes from an old washing machine, would also be an example of onomatopoeia.
