Does anyone know where I can obtain an onomatopoeia spelling dictionary, if such a thing exists?

I'm a reality TV transcriptionist who could really use this for accuracy's sake. I have googled this phrase, but it only produces a couple of words on Wiktionary. Thanks. :-)Does anyone know where I can obtain an onomatopoeia spelling dictionary, if such a thing exists?
unless your boss has been getting on you for misspelling words that are made-up anyway, i wouldn't worry about it.



onomatopoeia words by definition don't really have a "correct" spelling. if you're trying to use a word that exactly describes a sound but is kinda complicated, i'd go with a simpler word. in reality (no pun intended) your guess is as good as anyone'sDoes anyone know where I can obtain an onomatopoeia spelling dictionary, if such a thing exists?
I believe onomatopoeia words are made up and have no correct way to spell them. However some of them have common ways to spell them. Such as "boing" and "kerplunk" or "wham".Does anyone know where I can obtain an onomatopoeia spelling dictionary, if such a thing exists?
In a thesaurus.
