[Goanet] Konkani Onomatopoeia_errant thoughts

Onomatopoeia in Konkani is called anukaran utor(utar) ghodop, and onomatopoeic is anukarnatmak. Its usage is a litle less common these days. A particular quality of such words is in conveying meaning through sound. There is also the concept of imitative harmony. As usual people feel free to

Dear John, You may have come across the following reference, but its worth putting it on Goanet. Once again must go to the Man to get some clarity on Nehru's relationship with Goa, and his meta-motivation to liberate Goa. I am not saying that Goa would not have achieved liberation, nor that the

Dear Joe, Is it indeed dhobdobo, and upon seeing your correction -- changed my note to you. It is one of the more common uses of Konkani onomatopoeia (in animated language). However, nachot nachot cannot be an onomatopoeic word, since its sound does not create meaning. Even though it is repeated
