What is an example of onamtopia in Frankenstein?

While "onomatopoeia" is a more common term, "onomatopoeia" is not a term specifically related to literature or writing. Therefore, it's impossible to give an example of "onamtopia" in *Frankenstein* or any other literary work.

Perhaps you are thinking of onomatopoeia, which is the use of words that imitate the sounds they describe. Here are some examples from *Frankenstein*:

* "The wind howled and whistled through the crevices of the house." The words "howled" and "whistled" mimic the sounds of the wind.

* "The creature's footsteps echoed in the deserted street." The word "echoed" imitates the sound of the footsteps.

* "The monster roared with rage." The word "roared" mimics the sound of the monster's voice.

These are just a few examples of onomatopoeia in *Frankenstein*. Shelley uses these sounds to create a more immersive and evocative reading experience.
