Cognitive Processes:
* Decoding: You take the visual symbols (letters) and convert them into sounds and meaning.
* Language comprehension: You understand the meaning of the words and their relationships within the sentence.
* Working memory: You hold the information from the sentence in your mind to process it.
Other Aspects:
* A communicative act: You are receiving information from the writer or speaker.
* An act of learning: You may gain new knowledge or understanding by reading the sentence.
* A skill: Reading is a learned ability that requires practice and development.
Specific to the act of reading:
* Visual perception: Your eyes are perceiving the printed words on the page.
* Word recognition: You are identifying the individual words in the sentence.
Ultimately, the answer to your question depends on the specific aspect of reading you are interested in.
