Скачать или смотреть Reading Is a Skill the Brain Had to Learn - Psyhology facts

Reading feels natural — but it isn’t.
Your brain was never designed to read. It had to adapt.

Clicking on this video activates parts of your brain that took thousands of years to develop.
We usually assume reading is natural. Language feels natural. So written language must be natural too — right?

But science says otherwise.

The human brain is born ready to see, hear, and speak.
It is not born knowing how to read.

From an evolutionary perspective, reading is a very recent invention.
Our brains never evolved a dedicated system for it.
Instead, when we learn to read, the brain borrows regions used for vision, hearing, language, attention, and emotion — and links them together.

This video explores:
– Why reading feels effortless but isn’t
– How the brain “hacks” itself to read
– What ancient writing systems reveal about the brain
– Why reading uses the whole brain, not just language areas
Understanding this changes how you see learning, attention, and the human mind itself.
