"Gao"- used as a growl, many times the sound a dinosaur will make.

"don"- used to express the sound of an explosion

"ban"- the sound of something bursting

"ki"- a screeching sound

"u"- a groaning sound

"do"- often used to portray the sound of a heavy object moving

"dan"- another word to describe an explosive sound, however this word can also be used as the sound of a gunshot.

"zeze"- a wheezing sound

"jiji"- a sizzling sound

"bechabecha"- uncontrolled noisy talking

onomatopoeiate 

1. The act of taking the vocalization of sounds and putting them in the form of the written word.

Onomatopoeiate (n), onomatopoeiating (v), onomatopoeiated (adj).

Used primarily to describe the sounds musical instruments make. For instance, the famous adult film guitar sound would be onomatopoeiated with the words "bow chicka wow wow" because that is a rudimentary description of the sound made by the guitar.

Animal sounds, suck as meow, bow-wow, woof, moo, and so on are also examples of onomatopoeating words.
