phonic

/ˈfɑnɪk/ adj

Of or pertaining to sound; of the nature of sound; acoustic.

Word Origin From Greek phōnē 'sound, voice' — phonic means 'of sound'. The root is everywhere: telephone (distant sound), symphony (sounds together), phonics (teaching sounds), and phoneme (a unit of sound). The -ic suffix makes it an adjective, so phonic is simply 'sound-related'.
