ActivityCreate your own manga picture, frame, or whole story that includes an onomatopoeia word.
For example: It could be the scene of a wedding proposal where the man reveals the diamond ring. The onomatopoeia words could be キラキラ to describe the glittering/sparkling ring, ドキドキ to descrbe the man's nervous beating heart and another one to describe the surprised exclaimation of the girl. You can either draw the picture, or do a search of images online to find one you could use. Have a look through the dictionary of manga onomatopoeia for ideas of words you could include. |
