volume

Cubic measure, perhaps

Volume is the amount of space something occupies or contains: the volume of water in the tank, What's the volume of this box?

It also means amount or quantity more generally: the sheer volume of email I receive.

Volume is the loudness of sound: Turn down the volume.

A volume is a book, especially one in a series: the first volume of his memoirs, a leather-bound volume.

The phrase speaks volumes means something conveys a great deal without words: Her silence spoke volumes.
