so few words are truly onomatapoeic and even those that are are often only very simple so, with so many variations to their actual aural examples that it's like trying to describe a colour.
Of course the colour problem has been solved by taking chemical forumulas and assigning often unassociated words like 'dirty musk ox brown' to them.
It would be possible but not feasible in this age to assign similar names to musical sounds only if they were all created using a synthesiser which would allow for a standardised reproduction of them in any instance.
So we have to make do as best we can with words like "toot".
