Quick question. Or questions rather.

What's the onomatopoeia for sneezing? Is it achhoo? Archoo? Or am I not even close?

Also. When someone is sick, with sinus problems, sore throat, stuffy nose, voice possibly also muffled by a hanky or a cough drop... exactly how would they sound? Like would it be - "em seik eave mi anon" or maybe not so ( Read more... )

"I'b sick. Leab be alode." When you're stuffed up, you can't make the "m" and "n" sounds. (These sounds resonate in your sinus cavities; when those are stuffed up, the sound can't come through).

Achoo.

Or something like that.

I've never heard of archoo myself.

Shh...

That archoo thing was a result of tiredness.

I'm not -that- bad at onomatopoeias.

Hey Lia, I know this is a bit late but there's this poem by C.J. Dennis that I thought of when I saw this:

(From) K'shoo

Whed your does is code as barble,
Ad you sduffle all the day,
Ad your head id is behavig
Id a bos udbleased way;
Whed your ev'ry joid is achig
With a very paidful cramb,
Whed your throad is dry ad tiglish,
Ad your feed are code ad damb;
Whed your eyes are red ad rudding
WIth the dears that will cub oud;
You cad safely bake your bind ub
There is very liddle doubd.

You've got a code - a code -
Ad idfluedzal code;
You cahd tell how you caughd id,
But id's got a good firb hode.
Your face is whide, your eyes are pigk,
Your dose is red ad blue;
Ad you wish that you were -
Ah-Ah-Ah-h-Kish-SHOO-O-O!
