For example... I put my heavy bag on the desk with a "don".
・Gon…It has a strong nuance of something crashing.
For example... I crashed into the wallーgon!.
※There is "gashan" insted of "gon" as well. "gashan" is the sound of things like glass breaking.
・Gogogogo…It expresses a bad vibe, a tense scene, or something is getting closer.
For example..."Gog gogogo…" at the same timethe cave started to crumble.
・Gaan…It expresses feeling of shock, like when you forget an important appointment or you dropp your wallet.
For example...Gaan... I forgot my wallet!
・Niyari…It expresses a fearless laugh, or as if you're up to something.
For example...You smiled "niyari" - as if you have come up with like something.
・Gununu…It expresses the feeling of holding back frustration and anger.

Actually, I'm not very good at writing, speaking, or listening in English, so I’m not sure if I explained the onomatopoeia properly.
今日もオノマトペについて書いてみようと思います。
ドン…物を置いたり、ぶつけたりしたときの音や衝撃を表す
例…カバンを机にドンと置いた。
ゴン…ぶつかるニュアンスが強い表現。
例…壁にゴンとぶつかった。
※「ゴン」の代わりに「ガッシャーン」もあります。
「ガシャーン」はガラスなどが割れる音です。
ゴゴゴゴ… 不穏な空気、緊張感のある場面、何かが近づいてきている様子。
例…ゴゴゴゴ…という音と共に洞窟が崩れ始めた。
ガーン …大切な約束を忘れたり、財布を落としたりしたときのようなショックな気持ち。

ニヤリ…不敵な笑み、何か企んでるとき。
例…彼は何かを思いついたように、ニヤリと笑った。
ぐぬぬ…悔しさや怒りをこらえてる感じ。
例…ぐぬぬ…負けるなんて!
実は、英語で書くことも話すことも聞くこともあまり得意ではないので、擬音語をきちんと説明できたか自信がありません。

I think you did a great job explaining them! 😀
It is just that we don't normally use sound words in place of actual words in sentences in English. So if you try to put them within a sentence in your examples, it doesn't work too well. In a translation text, these onomatopoeia probably get converted into words and the sound is either being omitted or will be in a background narrative.

Good job! There was a lot of difficult sentence structure practice in this post!
For informal writing like text on the internet, its common in English to represent a sound or action (like onomatopoeias) with "*". This indicates the person isn't saying or hearing the words, but instead adds context to the surroundings!
But I did understand everything you were trying to say and learned something new!
Onomatopoeia: Part 2
Today, I'm thinking of I'll writinge about an onomatopoeia as well.
・Don…It expresses the action to putting things down and /or hitting something.
Instead of "...", you can also use "." or ":". I feel they are more common options.

I think a comma works better here than an ellipsis.
・Gon…It has a strong nuance of something crashing.
For example..., I crashed into the wallーgon!.
