Saying «I can read XXX» is precise in referring to the ability to understand only written text. Saying «I can understand XXX» could refer to either reading or understanding audio. Is there a single word that means only the ability to understand audio?

In the context of learning a language, we often speak of being able to read, write, speak and listen to it.

Isn’t «I can understand …..» referring to the fact that one has the ability to understand audio/spoken words/sentences?

We often use, I can read/write/speak to differentiate between the abilities to read/write/speak.

My best bet for ability to understand audio, in common usage is on «I can understand….»

Write, read, speak and . . . ? The only word that fits is understand. I know that understand can be used of writing as well, but the context will almost always show what is meant.

The OP notes that one is said to read if one can understand written text.

He adds, somewhat superfluously I think, that one can understand information provided in written or audio form.

The OP then asks for:

a single word that means only the ability to understand audio

I think the answer is no, there is no single word primarily understood to mean that. I’m with Gnawme that hear does have that meaning, certainly more so than listen, which was also suggested, and would fit most elegantly into the role.

However, I don’t believe that particular meaning of hear is limited to information received via audio. For instance, one might respond to sentiments expressed in an email with the reply, I hear you.

Primarily, though, the problem I see is that hear is so much more commonly used and understood to mean simply : to perceive or apprehend by the ear. To hear audio would then pair more closely with to see written information, rather then to read it.

To complete the phrase with grace: Read, write, speak, and hear.

The word hear is so common that we take it for granted, and forget that it specifically means:

to be made aware of by the ear : apprehend by the ear

where apprehend itself means

to lay hold of with the understanding : recognize the existence or
meaning of

«Speak» implies both speaking and listening abilities in this context, with the presumption that one could not speak without being able to understand the spoken word by listening.

I am probably the only exception, though.

So, you can just say I can speak to mean both speech and listening abilities. That covers the entire «audio» domain. The converse is not true! One could understand reasonably well listening to people, but be unable to speak in the language.

Auditory Discrimination is defined by Wise Geek as the brain’s ability to organize and make sense of language sounds. However, it is generally understood to mean something closer to this from education.com: [the] Ability to distinguish sounds of varying frequencies, intensities, and patterns, which reflects a more accurate meaning of discrimination.

Auditory Processing is the ability to listen, comprehend, and respond to information that we hear through our auditory channels, according to bbbautism.com.

A similar definition is provided by speech-therapy-on-video.com: the ability to hear auditory messages, distinguish between similar sounds or words, separate relevant speech from background noise, and the ability to recall and comprehend what was heard.

Unfortunately, for your purposes, this is not a single word. But it’s pretty close.

Being able to read something doesn’t imply being able to understand it. And there is a difference between understanding the words themselves and understanding the meaning. The analog of reading is listening. By the same token, I can listen to someone, it doesn’t mean I know what they’re talking about.
