The word "yelp" serves as an onomatopoeic marker in literature, capturing fleeting bursts of emotion ranging from shock and pain to sheer delight. It is often employed to mimic the sharp, involuntary cry of an animal—or even a human reacting in moments of sudden distress—as when a character winces from a blow or a canine expresses loyalty and excitement ([1], [2], [3]). In other contexts, it not only conveys physical sensations but also accentuates dramatic tension or comic relief, as seen when a dog’s spirited response enlivens a scene or a startled figure reacts to unexpected events ([4], [5], [6]). This versatility makes "yelp" an effective tool for drawing readers into the immediate, sensory world of the narrative.
