poured down rain

In Gbaya, the notion of rain pouring down is emphasized in Psalm 68:8 with ɓululu, an ideophone that expresses the violence of heavy rain without wind.

Ideophones are a class of sound symbolic words expressing human sensation that are used as literary devices in many African languages. (Source: Philip Noss)
