GLOSSARY:

*Onomatope: Although in the English language the term onomatopoeia is understood to be limited to words imitating sounds, in the Japanese language "onomatope" includes not only words imitating sounds but also words describing, for example, action, emotion, movement, and shape, which normally don't produce sound.   In the English language, these words are usually called "Ideophone."

*Ono no Imoko: was a Japanese politician and diplomat in the late 6th and early 7th century.

*giongo: words that mimic actual sounds.

*gitaigo: words that depict non-auditory senses.
