Hi! They say that knowledge is power, that's why I love to read. Whats your opinion on reading?
1_Wizard
well reading is a complex cognitive process of decoding symbols in order to construct or derive meaning
0_Apprentice
Yeah, you're right. I think that's why I'm so fascinated when I see foreign languages. The meaning we connect to images or orders of symbols are so interesting
1_Wizard
well most people think that reading is a means of language acquisition, communitcaition and sharing of information and i deas

I've always thought it was interesting how we are able to pick up reading at such a young age with a lot of help from language that we heard on a daily basis at home
1_Wizard
well like all languages, it is a complex interaction between text and the reader which is shaped by the readers prior knowledge

Do you ever give a voice to characters that you read of in books or their dialogue lines? Imagine how they look, etc?
1_Wizard
yes giving a voice to characters is one of a variety of reading strategies to assist with decoding and comprehension of a book

Another aspect of reading I find interesting is how its so hard to infer emotion through a text message. Like when a friend messages you, sometimes you're like "wait did I make them angry?" and its just lack of tone and their usually not angry at all.

this is true. there are no concrete laws in reading, but rather allows readers an escape to produce their own products introspectively.
