Sound is mechanical energy. As such, it presents as a force on us, particularly our ears. When we think of "loud" as it relates to sound, it is a relative term. A sneeze is loud compared to a pin dropping on a hardwood floor. A hammer striking a nail is not as loud as a big firecracker exploding. The term loudness could be applied to the measure of the amount of sound, and we often use the bel (commonly, the decibel) to measure sound. The decibel is actually a comparison of a sound level to another or to a standard. No better proof of the relative nature of the word "loud" can probably be found than that.
