MEDFORD MUFFLER CO. m Wh Dollar Stamps By Eugena Burnt Ranger-Naturalist Even the most lowly mammal may make a noise to indicate possession of territory, time for mating, desire for food, intimida tion . . . but naturally, man has perfected communication to its highest art but it's an odd thing about the words (or sounds) he makes. Many of his words are .echo words (called onomatopoetic words). Such words are baa, boom, chuckle, crash, frizzle, plunk, snore, tinkle, whang, whistle and whoosh. Some other words sound like what they mean even though what they signify is not a sound, point ouj; Helena and Charlton Laird in their fascinating book, The Tree of Language (World, N.Y.). To take two, skitter and slither. Now you can send a flat stone skittering over a glassy lake or you can see a snake slithering through he grass and neither the stone nor the snake will be making a sound. Yet, as you think about it, skitter sounds like the motion of the stone hitting the surface of the water lightly between jumps. And slither sounds like the smooth, gliding motion of the snake. . Curiously, some of our words have a negative but no positive. Anything which is indelible can not be erased, but there is no such word as d e 1 i b 1 e. Even though an uncouth, unkempt person should reform his ways, he would not be couth and kempt: Opposite Meanings Then there are the words with opposite meanings it took a Norwegian visitor to my study to point these out to me. "My boat is fast to the dock," and "My boat is fast in the water." Or, "The string is so raveled I can't get it undone," and "My sock is raveled it's coming un done." Then there are hundreds of words that sound exactly alike but have different meanings. To pair a few: ail and ale; vale and veil; bear and bare; flee and flea; need and knead; seller and cellar; tier and tear. But there are some words that sound alike and are spelled alike but have different mean ings. A date can be a fruit or an appointment; a seal is a large sea mammal or, a small stamp to make an impression on pa per; a steak comes from a steer but you steer a car; a quail might quail if it knew you were about to shoot it; you go to the store for a pound of butter; you pound a nail; and if your dog hasn't license, he may be taken to the pound.
