    read

    reading to yourself

    When you read a piece of writing, you look at it and understand what it says.

        Why don't you read your letter?

        Have you read that article I gave you?

    reading to someone else

    If you read something such as a book to someone, you say the words aloud so that the other person can hear them. When you use read like this, it has two objects. If the indirect object is a pronoun, it usually goes in front of the direct object.

        I'm going to read him some of my poems.

        I read her the two pages dealing with Edward Aveling's desertion of Eleanor Marx.

    If the indirect object is not a pronoun, it usually goes after the direct object. When this happens, you put `to' in front of the indirect object.

        One winter I read a play to the seniors.

    You also put the indirect object after the direct object when the direct object is a pronoun.

        You will have to read it to him.

    See section on ditransitive verbs in entry at Verbs.

    Note that you can also omit the direct object.

        I'll go up and read to Sam for five minutes.

    reading a subject

    In British English, if you read a subject at university, you study it.
