Re:Why the German language has so many great words by gandarojin on Saturday March 12, 2016 @07:27AM (#11272575)
The German word for “staple” is »Tacker«, which is onomatopoeic.

If you wanted to say that two cars crashed, you could use:

»Zwei Autos (prallten|krachten) gegeneinander.«

Both »prallen« and »krachen« are onomatopoeic.

Onomatopoeia is common in German as well.
