Is trebles an onomatopoeia in the poem the brook?

Answer 1

Here is a sample selection from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner":

`And now the STORM-BLAST came, and he

Was tyrannous and strong :

He struck with his o'ertaking wings,

And chased us south along. With sloping masts and dipping prow,

As who pursued with yell and blow

Still treads the shadow of his foe,

And forward bends his head,

The ship drove fast, loud roared the blast,

The southward aye we fled. And now there came both mist and snow,

And it grew wondrous cold :

And ice, mast-high, came floating by,

As green as emerald. One has to hear the s, sh, f, and z sounds to hear the sounds of the sea. But beyond that, one also has to hear the explosive consonant sounds (b, d, k, p and t) to understand the sense of violence of the storm; waves and surge slapping against the ship. In the context of sound of the words alone, one can imagine being at sea in a storm.

Answer 2

The definition of onomatopoeia is to imitate a natural sound, such as thump, hiccup, buzz, hiss, woof, etc. An example sentence is:
While the raven cawed, the wolves howled and the wind whooshed through the trees, the two lovers embraced so tightly they could hear the thump, thump, thump of each other's heartbeats.

Answer 3

Yes, "trebles" in the poem "The Brook" is not an onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeias are words that imitate or suggest the source of the sound they describe through the sound of the word itself. The word "trebles" in this context refers to a musical term indicating high-pitched sounds or voices.
