Default international onomatopoeias

an onomatopoeia is a word that imitates or suggests the sound is describes. It's different in every language. What are some in yours? Animals ones are most common and easy to find online (like bzzzpeek.com) but what are other ones?

here are a couple to get us started:

What does a clock sound like in your language? (in English, tick tock)
What about when dishes fall on the floor? (in English, clatter)
What does the wind through leaves sound like? (in English, rustle)
What does a door that shuts hard sound like? (in English, slam)
