The word "clink" functions as a vivid piece of auditory imagery in literature, evoking metallic sounds that both set a scene and deepen the narrative’s atmosphere. Authors employ it to capture the sharp, resonant echo of metal—whether it is the subtle chink of chains that hints at imprisonment and foreboding [1] or the delicate music of glasses in a convivial gathering that underscores momentary joy or solemnity [2, 3]. In other contexts, the clink marks the punctuated cadence of movement, such as the rhythmic sound of horse’s hooves on cobblestones that adds suspense or mystery to a scene [4, 5]. Even in lighter moments, the onomatopoeic quality of "clink" intensifies the sensory experience, merging the literal and the symbolic to enrich the narrative texture [6, 7].
