呼 的 一声

[Emily22]

Hello everyone

 

I came across a sentence that goes like:

那些 有 你 在 身边 的 影片

呼 的 一声 飞 的 老远 老远

 

I understand that the general meaning of the sentence is: those images of you beside me have flown far, far away. But what is 呼 的 一声? Could someone put it in a different context?

Thank you!

With a “呼” sound.

呼的一声is a onomatopoeia (象声词), as the sound of a fast flying object, meaning very fast. Another common onomatopoeia is 嗖的一声 (sou1 de yi4sheng1), like in 这辆车从我旁边嗖的一声开过去。

I understand it now, it helped that you pointed out that it's an onomatopoeia. Thank you!

You're welcome!
