Was that made up just for describing a bagpipe sound here?
It made me think of the being dongled awake thread.
Really, this is kind of related to Emanuela's post under
languageless thought, about language being limited. Sounds are an excellent example of this! One exception to this limit that I know of was in Jean Auel's book--The Valley of the Horses, I think. The young cave-dwelling girl finds and raises a foal, and names it Whinny. But she doesn't
speak the name: she imitates the sound the horse makes.
This is an interesting series of books, not only for the
extreme detail of prehistoric life, but because the main character spoke until she was about 5 years old, then her
parents were killed and she was raised by a clan that used
sign language, with virtually no spoken words. There were rigid rules of politeness about not looking at others so as not to invade their privacy--no need to worry about eavesdropping. She had to re-learn communication entirely.
