Özet:
Onomatopoeic words occupy a crucial position in language. They are words used to express voluntary or involuntary human and animal sounds as well as those of objects or their behaviors and/or movements. Briefly, such words identify sounds or movements. Onomatopoeic words can be classified as either primary or secondary based on their number of sounds and syllables. Primary onomatopoeics represent one-syllable words, and secondary onomatopoeics represent multisyllable words. The movement, sound or appearance, which are intended to be explained with reflection words, are explained more clearly and the current stuation is illustrated and animated. Onomatopoeic words in Karakalpak Turkish, which are called yeliklewisler, can be classified as either seske yeliklewisler or koriniske yeliklewisler, and are rich in vocabulary. In onomatopoeics, a relationship exists between the feature a word expresses and the sound it makes. This study attempts to reveal the meaning that sounds contribute to words and the former's effects on the latter. For this study, the Karakalpak Turkish dictionary is scanned, and vocabulary words that are onomatopoeic are revealed. Moreover, a phonetic examination of onomatopoeic roots is conducted. Through onomatopoeic roots, various sounds can be seen as contributing meaning to as well as the existence of a significant sound system. Onomatopoeic words, which are used heavily in Turkish dialects and accents, are an important subject that should be discussed from various perspectives.
