The Soundex is a coded surname index (using the first letter of the last name and three digits) based on the way a name sounds rather than the way it's spelled. Surnames that sound the same but are spelled differently - such as Smith and Smyth - have the same code and are filed together.
Sound is a kind of energy created when something vibrates. When this vibration reaches an ear, it is translated into what we recognize as a sound. Sound vibration must travel through matter. This is typically air. When you say, Hello, to a friend, the air parts (called molecules) vibrate in small waves which travel to the friend and they hear the word Hello.. Sound can also travel through other matter. Tap on the table.
