Onomatopeia/Mimetic Words in Japanese

Common Japanese mimetic words (sound-words like きらきら, どきどき, or ぺらぺら). The EDICT dictionary has 1103 words tagged as on-mim. This deck contains the 168 words also tagged as priority (most common 20k Japanese words) minus a few so similar I couldn't make distinct flashcards. The EDICT dictionary is the property of the Electronic Dictionary Research and Development Group (http://www.edrdg.org/), used in conformance with the Group's license. You may reuse any of the material here likewise.
