and which is the verb for the onomatopeea the raven makes? Every
language must ( I guess ) have a verb for this special sound make by
crows and raves.
In rom this is "a croncãni". In fact an another name for raven is
"croncan" and the derivatives are all given as derivatives of the
onomatopea "cronc"
cronc= onomatopea
croncãni or croncãi= to make noise like a raven or a crow
croncanit= an unpleasant noise made by a crow or raven
croncanitura, croncãnire= the substantiv
croncanitor= the adjectiv
