English abstract

The meaning of reading has undergone many changes. In the past, reading simply meant to extract visual information from any given codes or systems and thereafter, it became much more complex. In modern times, reading is defined as “the interaction of what is in the head with what is on the page within a particular context that causes readers to comprehend what they read”. Thus, reading is the ability to recognize, and examine words or sentences and understand the information within. It is not only a cognitive process of understanding a written linguistic message but to examine and grasp the meaning from it. Opines that reading has a long and distinguish track record for establishing positive and lasting benefits to humanity. It gives a unifying and civilizing force tending to unite social groups through the dissemination of common experiences.
