When you are reading a passage or comprehension, you might have come across certain words that would alert your hearing sense. These words have meanings related to listening. They can tell your mind to make your listening sense more active. These words are also known to describe different sounds so that you can actually feel it happening in the real world. For example, cuckoo, splash, hiccup, ping pong, etc.

Such words can describe different flavors, for example, tasty, scrumptious, bitter, sweet, spicy, etc.
