inaudibly

/ˌɪˈnɔdəbɫi/ adv

In a manner which is incapable of being heard or not loud enough to be heard.

Word Origin Inaudibly means 'not able to be heard'. It comes from Latin audire 'to hear', which gives us audio, audience, audit (originally a hearing), and obey (from oboedire 'to listen to'). The prefix in- negates it, so inaudibly is doing something so quietly it can't be heard.
