How do I use the /playsound command?

How do I use the /playsound command? - Brown Wooden Blocks With Number 8

I am completely unfamiliar with this command, but I want to know how to use it.

Normally all I have to do is type /[example] and then press tab, and a bunch of options will show up. For an example, when I do /particle [tab] then a lot of particle effects will pop up. But it does nothing when I try the /playsound command. Is there something I need to add to a folder or something?

Also, I don't completely understand the rest of the command either. Please help me.
