phonography
Writing by sound
Phonography is writing that represents speech sounds rather than meanings or ideas.
The term covers systems like shorthand and phonetic alphabets, where symbols correspond to spoken sounds.
In the nineteenth century, phonography also referred to the technology of recording and reproducing sound—the phonograph and its use.
She studied phonography to become a court stenographer.
