Authors use onomatopoeia to add sound effects to their writing. Onomatopoeia is a literary device that creates words that imitate the sound of the thing being described. For example, "crunch" imitates the sound of something being crushed or broken, while "buzz" imitates the sound of a bee. Onomatopoeia is used to make the writing more vivid and engaging for the reader, making them feel like they are truly experiencing the sounds of the story.
