Guys !
I need help on a study.
Could you post the sounds of an action, or a look or a happening. Turkish and/or English with explanation.
Or can you post English equivalents of Tr. ones and vice versa.

Except sound of animals.

TR. gurul gurul - sound of hungriness - ENG. ?
TR. hüngür hüngür - sound of crying - ENG ?
TR. fokur fokur - sound of a boiling water. - ENG ?

kikir kikir - sound of laugh
fıkır fıkır - sound of talking ? also for dancing.
fısır fısır - sound of whispering
kıtır kıtır - sound of a cracker ?
şangır - sound of breaking window
küt - sound of hit
pat - sound of drop or fall
sapır sapır - sound of playing badly at a game, or pouring, dropping.

Are "lop lop" and "pıt pıt" sounds of something? I read it somewhere in a recipe..

Lop lop - sound of being in a LOP situation. Soft and round like a well-done boiled egg.
Pıt pıt - ??? (no idea)

But keep posting. Is it true that English doesn't have any such sounds ? Post some.

TR. gurul gurul - sound of hungriness - ENG. - growl grumble (or feeed meee lol)
TR. hüngür hüngür - sound of crying - ENG - wah wah!
TR. fokur fokur - sound of a boiling water. - ENG - bubble bubble
kikir kikir - sound of laugh - ENG - ah ha ha!
fıkır fıkır - sound of talking - ENG - yadda yadda yadda or yak yak yak or cluck cluck (as in women talking like chickens
? also for dancing.
fısır fısır - sound of whispering - ENG - spspspssppsss
kıtır kıtır - sound of a cracker - ENG - crackle or crunch crunch (also could be stepping on leaves)
şangır - sound of breaking window - ENG - crashhh! or kshhh!
küt - sound of hit ENG - type of hit? - bang! whomp! bam! bonk!
pat - sound of drop or fall - ENG - whistlinggggg high to low ...SPLAT! lol
- sound of raindrops - ENG pitter patter
sapır sapır - sound of playing badly at a game, or pouring, dropping. ENG?

Thanks people. List is going very well.
Could you post more when you remember others.
I hope to go over 50 items in the list.

There are many, but hard to remember and they are usually not in dictionaries.

Şapır şupur - Sound of eating or kissing with a big mouth.
Katır kutur - When eating something hard and crackling. Like candy, cube sugar
Cısss - Sound of frying oil, or "do not do that!" for kids.
Cıyıl cıyıl - Sound of screaming or crying.
Patır patır - sound of dropping things. and hard and fast run.

You are very welcome, Elisa.

Pıt pıt -- pıtırdamak = to patter = to make a sound of striking a hard surface lightly, quickly, and repeatedly -- The patter of rain on the window. The dog pattered down the stairs.

Thanx Bliss.
Pıtır pıtır - sound of rain or walking softly and fast. I think we use it for running in Turkish.

Please add more.
I have just over 20 now.

Sorry to interfere with your thread SFS, but what would "pıt pıt yağ olsun" mean then?

You and your interferations are always welcome Elisa.

I can imagine 2 things on "pıt pıt yağ olsun" sentence.
1-) Sound of "Pıt" recalls something small/less and in pieces in my mind. For oil, it recalls not in much quantity but well oiled fry pan.
2-) Small things in half-ball shape. Like droplets on the window or a car after a rain.

There maybe another special usage among Ev-hanımları that I couldn't get

şakır şakır-sound of strong rain or a fluent speaking

Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah....this is also an English sound when someone is talking too much or complaining too much.

eg "he said he wouldn't wash the dishes for me but why should I do them when I'm looking after the children and blah blah blah blah blah".

Oh and another noise for an empty stomach is "gggggrrrrrrowl". In England we usually say "oh my stomach is rumbling".

şıkır şıkır -- with the clinking noise

These are from the Dilbert comic. I download the Turkish version every day and match it with the English original.

Voice of man giggling.
English: HEE-HEE
Turkish: HİHİH

Voice of man being beaten.
English: OW! OW! OW!
Turkish: AY! AY! AY!

Sound of a punch (person hitting some one else very hard).
English: PUNCH
Turkish: GÃœMMM

Sound of typing on a computer.
English: CLICK
Turkish: KLİK

Scream of man being burned.
English: GAAA!!!
Turkish: AAAY!

Word used when feeling a small pain.
English: Ouch
Turkish: Uf

Sound of explosion.
English: KABOOM
Turkish: BOOOMM

In regards to Post 15.

Interventions or interferences, I just couldn't remember the word. That's why I underlined it.

But thanks a lot for your contributions.

Keep it coming as much as you remember.

SunFlowerSeed, you may of course now this already but I thought I'd tell it anyway: the word for this "phenomenon" is "onomatopoeia". I'm sure you will find stuff on the internet as well by using that as a key word

(in TR it's "yansıma" or "onomatope", if I looked up correctly..)

Thanks again Elisa. But studies on this area, "mimetic word"s and "onomatopoeia"s are not common on the net. I mean Eng. - Tr or Eng - Kor. I have run a google, but what I have found were not a big deal.

I also need Korean translations, that's why I am asking for English ones. Those are hard to find words on dictionaries.
I mean there is no list for such words. Is there any ?
So, I even don't know how many or which ones do we have in Turkish. That is why I am asking here about them.

And I will spend a lot of time on Koreans too. But this is my problem. I need to spend a lot of time with people explaining the action and asking and trying to find equivalents.
