What does AUDIAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
technicalrare
Connected with hearing or the sense of sound; perceived through the ear rather than through sight or touch.
Audial describes anything tied to the sense of hearing, covering much the same ground as the far commoner word auditory. Writers on perception and design sometimes reach for audial to name a sound-based cue or channel as distinct from a visual one, though the word appears far less often than auditory or aural in ordinary use. Its rarity means it turns up mainly in specialist or academic writing rather than everyday speech.
