The Chinese word 阅读 (yuedu) for "reading" is composed of two characters:- **阅 (yue)**, which means "to read" or "to look through". This character is composed of two parts: - The radical 目 (mu), which means "eye". - The phonetic component 月 (yue), which is pronounced similarly to the character 阅.- **读 (du)**, which means "to read aloud" or "to recite". This character is composed of two parts: - The radical 口 (kou), which means "mouth". - The phonetic component 豆 (dou), which is pronounced similarly to the character 读.The combination of these two characters creates the word 阅读, which means "to read". This word is used in a variety of contexts, including reading books, newspapers, and magazines, as well as reading online content.
