In this paper, there will be a thematic overview of some of the most interesting contributions to the area of onomatopoeia and other sound symbolism. Most linguists have had something to say on the subject, in many cases using different terminologies.
The themes that are especially important are the questions of integration into language (grammar and lexicon), of productivity, of universality and of explanation. The chapter will end with a summary of forms and meanings of onomatopoeic and sound symbolic expressions.
