Cuckoo

This bird doesn’t have a name, what it has is a sound. Its name is its call. This is an example of onomatopoeia: when a word phonetically imitates, resembles, or suggests the sound it represents. For example, the word “cuckoo” mimics the distinctive call of the Cuculus canorus, the common cuckoo. This pattern appears in many different languages. In some, the onomatopoeic origin is clear and unmistakable; in others, it’s more veiled, having been shaped by phonetic shifts or linguistic evolution over time.
