loud enough to be heard

His whisper was barely audible over the roar of the crowd.

One sentence, one sense. Without it the word could be read three other ways.

The true synonym

discernible

Same sentence, swapped: His whisper was barely discernible over the roar of the crowd.

Close but different

Wrong tiles, chosen to be tempting rather than absurd. The reason line above takes the nearest one apart; the rest fail the same sentence for their own reasons.

Where audible turns up in the game

audible is the word under test in one puzzle, at Tier 3, Ridgeline. It also sits on the board as one of the three wrong tiles in two other puzzles, where the answer is a different word entirely.

The puzzles where audible is the trap

palpableadjective, Tier 3, Ridgeline. The answer there is tangible, in the sense "able to be touched, felt, or physically sensed", so audible is there to be ruled out.
tactileadjective, Tier 4, High Camp. The answer there is haptic, in the sense "relating to or perceived through the sense of touch", and audible is on the board beside it.

Play audible

The bank on this page is the bank the game plays from, so audible reaches you as a board rather than a definition: the sentence first, four tiles, and the meaning after you choose.
