Fuaim (Irish for "sound") is the sixth album by Irish folk group Clannad. It was released in 1982. It was produced by Nicky Ryan and was the last Clannad album to feature younger sister Eithne Ní Bhraonáin, later known as Enya. It is also the only Clannad album to credit her; while she performed keyboard and backing vocals on the previous album "Crann Úll", she was not credited for this. She departed, along with Nicky Ryan, shortly thereafter to begin a solo career.

The album was remastered and reissued on 7 August 2020 in both compact disc and vinyl formats.
