Even if you can read katakana like me, you still might not understand the mimetics (or onomatopoeia).

Which ones do you know?

So far, I know that 'Ta' is the mimetic for when your foot taps against the ground.


It'd be nice if I knew a site for all of them.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found them!

Check these out guys.

I know 'ong' is like 'poof'. I know the one for sobering up (something I picked up from Et Cetera), but it's a symbol.

By 'ong' you mean 'ongu' or something?

I was looking at the list while I was watching the Kakashi x Akatsuki fight and it doesn't seem like the list is complete. I still was able to get a few things though that I always overlooked when reading manga.

No, 'ong'. I've seen it in manga, and they usually add more G's.

I've never seen that. Sounds are written in katakana and there's no 'g' in katakana. I've never seen a G used for a sound effect in any of the manga I've read. Where are you finding it?
