Homework = part 3 of the handout - which sentence goes with each word?
1 Oops!
2 Ah-hah!
3 Mmm
4 Phew! (“pee you” - this also indicates that something smells bad)
5 Shh
6 (Splash - but this isn’t a sound you make)
7 Whew! (This represents a sigh of relief.)
8 Ouch!
9 Hah!
10 Hmm...

We have a lot of onomatopoeic words for the sounds we make while speaking, which aren’t really ‘words’ exactly
“huh” and “hah” are different words
“um” and “uh” are different sounds but are used the same way
Uh-uh = no
Uh-huh = yes/right
Uh-oh = oops / something bad is about to happen
- The intonation can be very important to understand these words.

ka-ching = the sound of a cash register (with a bell when the drawer opens)

When wolves howl, they say, “Awooooooooo!”
