Reading is the process of taking in the sense or
meaning of symbols, often specifically those of a written language, by
means of sight or touch.
Reading is generally an individual activity, done silently, although on
occasion a person reads out loud for other listeners; or reads aloud for
one's own use, for better comprehension. Before the reintroduction of
separated text (spaces between words) in the late Middle Ages, the
ability to read silently was considered rather remarkable.
