In his works, the genetics of imitative words, imitation of the same sound in different languages, even in different dialects of the same language in different forms, and its reasons are often correctly interpreted. A language went through a period of selection and accumulation of speech sounds and initial words before speech sounds emerged from mimemes. Imitative words refer to various voluntary and involuntary sounds and cries, images of actions or situations. They play an important role in expressing ideas clearly and figuratively.
