In Gbaya, the notion of the scent of an apple (in Gbaya here: “good fruit”) in Song of Songs 7:8 is emphasized with sut, an ideophone used to describe pleasant fragrances.

Ideophones are a class of sound symbolic words expressing human sensation that are used as literary devices in many African languages. Since the subject matter of Songs of Songs is particularly conducive to the use of ideophones, there are a total of 30 ideophones in the Gbaya Bible in that short biblical book alone.
