Examples

“At īnfēlīcibus servīs movēre labra nē in hōc quidem ut loquantur, licet; virgā murmur omne compescitur, ….”

(The slaves who must stand near the master at dinnertime:) Meanwhile, the miserable slaves aren’t even allowed to move their lips to speak. Every murmur is silenced by a rod.

“Illī indignantēs magnō cum murmure montis”

Those [stormwinds] resenting [their confinement]: With a mighty rumbling of the mountain all around, [against] locked gates they rage. (Evocative word-sounds convey fantastical noises caused by trapped winds: the alliteration of repeated “m’s” for menacing rumbling, and onomatopoeia using hard “c’s” to personify angry winds clanging their cages.)
