I'm trying to do some onomatopoeia for my Na'vi comic, either in Na'vi or in English... and so I am seeking some help.

Specifically, is there any onomatopoeia for hisses, the call that Ney'tiri uses for her ikran, the quick "aye aye aye!" they do for victory, or the wooping sounds? Anyone know? :)

The only 100% official onomatopeia is kxangangang.

The hisses are maybe an other kind of onomatopeia, but I call them interjections.

Thanks for the replies. :) I think I will try to come up with some of my own stuff. Well, perhaps onomatopedia isn't exactly what I'm looking for so much as how to convey the sounds they make in text, like Neytiri calling her ikran.
