If you would like to measure how loud the sound is, dB, decibels, would be good. To give you a rough idea, a whisper is about 30 dB, a baby crying loudly about 100 dB. Also, if you like to measure the frequency or the wavelength, you can use Hertz.

Hertz for pitch (high or low) and decibels for volume (loudness).

He's right!!! Don't bother trying to deny it.

The volume or loudness of sound is measured in decibels. A decibel of 0 is the lowest level while a decibel of 65 is normal speaking in a conversation.
