i can't stop thinking about that my literature teacher today told us that a lot of people (including my class) was loosing the ability of reading comprehension and he has a really strong point

i feel like more and more people take the words more literally, not really stopping to imagine and try to comprehend the meaning behind them. Not all words will mean the same or be used in a literal way

You, as a reader, have to imagine the scene and try to put in place the word and its meaning to fit in a logic way into a specific action or dialoge

#i talk #this works for both english and spanish literature #i've seen this mostly in spanish cuz thats the language that i use the most #and maybe the reason is that theres a lot of words that have more than one meaning #i've been seeing it mostly in fanfics and the few book reviews that i haven read in english too #the point here is that there's the risk that next generations would loose this ability and that has me thinking a lot #like the fact that this is starting to significantly affect my own generation
