Abstract
The aim of the study is to determine the features of the contextual implementation of sound-descriptive words in literary texts of the English language. The scientific novelty of the work is due to the fact that it for the first time gives a more complete overview of sound-descriptive words functioning in literary texts. The idea is substantiated that, being independent onomatopoeic units, sound-descriptive words are not able to fully transmit one or another sound. As a result, the article presents such methods of intensifying sound-descriptive words when transmitting auditory information in a text as description, clarification, comparison, agglomerates, metaphors based on contextual examples from the English prose fiction.
