Whoever coined the word "onomatopoeia" completely missed the point.
That said I can't of a better example than auspuff. I was travelling with my family thru Bavaria during the early 1970's and the Opel's muffler blew. I took it to a dealer who spoke no English.
He said "Auspuff." and I knew what he meant. He replaced the muffler and we had a wonderful trip.
