The Bohm–Staver description of sound waves in metals in the jellium model is generalized by taking into account not only the self-consistent electric field but also the second correlation moment of internal electric field that provides shear elasticity. The system of linearized equations that contains the second correlation moment of the field as a new variable is built. The wave equation is worked out and the velocities of longitudinal and transverse sound are found. The estimation of the field correlation value through the sublimation heat and the electronic Fermi-gas energy is offered for the metals. The velocities of transverse sound are found, which matches well the velocity obtained from the shear modules.
