When you want to say "to read aloud" in Chinese, you use the verb 朗读 (lángdú).
This word is often used in schools or when practicing pronunciation.
For example, if a teacher asks students to read a text out loud, they would say 朗读课文 (lángdú kèwén).
You can also use it when you are reading a book or a poem aloud to someone else.
When you're trying to improve your Chinese pronunciation and fluency, one very effective method is 朗读 (lǎngdú). This means to read aloud. It's different from just reading silently because it actively engages your mouth and vocal cords, helping you to form the sounds correctly and build muscle memory for speaking. By reading aloud, you can also pay closer attention to the rhythm and intonation of the language, which are crucial for sounding more natural. It's a great way to practice connecting words smoothly and building confidence in your spoken Chinese.

§ What Does 朗读 (lángdú) Mean?
- Definition
- to read aloud
You're learning Chinese, so you already know that practice is key. And what's one of the best ways to practice your pronunciation and intonation? Reading aloud! That's exactly what 朗读 (lángdú) means: to read something out loud.
It's a common verb you'll encounter in various situations, especially in educational or formal settings.
§ Where You Actually Hear This Word — Work, School, News
Let's look at how 朗读 (lángdú) shows up in real life.
§ In School
This is probably the most common place you'll hear or use 朗读 (lángdú). Teachers often ask students to 朗读 texts to improve their speaking skills.
老师让学生朗读课文。
Lǎoshī ràng xuéshēng lángdú kèwén.
The teacher asked the students to read aloud the text.
请你朗读一下这段话。
Qǐng nǐ lángdú yīxià zhè duàn huà.
Please read this paragraph aloud.
§ In Formal Settings or Presentations
Sometimes, in formal settings like a conference or a meeting, someone might 朗读 an official statement or a speech.
主持人朗读了获奖名单。
Zhǔchírén lángdú le huòjiǎng míngdān.
The host read aloud the list of winners.
§ In News or Media
While less frequent than in school, you might hear this word when a news anchor or a commentator is describing someone reading a document on air.
他正在朗读一份声明。
Tā zhèngzài lángdú yī fèn shēngmíng.
He is reading a statement aloud.
§ Don't Confuse 朗读 with 读 (dú) or 阅读 (yuèdú)
Many learners, especially at the A2 level, tend to use 读 (dú) or 阅读 (yuèdú) when they really mean 朗读 (lángdú). While all three relate to reading, their nuances are important.
- DEFINITION
- 读 (dú): to read generally, to study, to attend school.
我喜欢读书。(Wǒ xǐhuān dú shū.) I like to read books.
- DEFINITION
- 阅读 (yuèdú): to read, emphasizing the act of comprehending written material, often silently.
请仔细阅读说明。(Qǐng zǐxì yuèdú shuōmíng.) Please read the instructions carefully.
While 读 and 阅读 can sometimes imply reading aloud in specific contexts, 朗读 specifically focuses on the action of articulating words verbally. If you want to say 'read aloud', always use 朗读.
§ Using 朗读 without an Object
朗读 is a transitive verb, meaning it usually needs an object. You 朗读 something. While you can sometimes omit the object if it's clear from context, it's safer for learners to include it.
Incorrect: 他喜欢朗读。 (Tā xǐhuān lángdú.) – While grammatically not wrong, it sounds incomplete. What does he like to read aloud?
Correct: 他喜欢朗读诗歌。(Tā xǐhuān lángdú shīgē.) He likes to read poetry aloud.
Correct: 老师让学生们朗读课文。(Lǎoshī ràng xuéshēngmen lángdú kèwén.) The teacher asked the students to read the text aloud.
§ Misplacing 朗读 in a Sentence
Word order in Chinese is crucial. 朗读, as a verb, typically follows the subject and precedes its object.
Incorrect: 诗歌他朗读了。(Shīgē tā lángdú le.) – This word order is awkward and incorrect for a simple statement.
Correct: 他朗读了诗歌。(Tā lángdú le shīgē.) He read the poetry aloud.
请你朗读这段文字。(Qǐng nǐ lángdú zhè duàn wénzì.) Please read this passage aloud.
§ Not Using 朗读 for Performance or Practice
朗读 is particularly appropriate when the act of reading aloud is for performance, practice, or to share the text audibly with others. If the focus is on vocal delivery, 朗读 is your word.
Context: A child reading a story to their parents.
Correct: 孩子在给父母朗读故事。(Háizi zài gěi fùmǔ lángdú gùshì.) The child is reading a story aloud to their parents.
Context: Practicing pronunciation.
Correct: 老师让我们多朗读课文来练习发音。(Lǎoshī ràng wǒmen duō lángdú kèwén lái liànxí fāyīn.) The teacher asked us to read the text aloud more often to practice pronunciation.
Avoiding these common pitfalls will help you use 朗读 more accurately and naturally in your Chinese conversations and writing. Focus on the specific meaning of 'reading aloud' and remember its role as a transitive verb.
§ Understanding the Nuances
When you're learning Chinese, you'll come across several words that seem to mean 'to read.' It can be confusing to know when to use which one. Let's break down 朗读 (lángdú), 阅读 (yuèdú), and 读 (dú) so you can use them correctly.
§ 朗读 (lángdú): To Read Aloud
- DEFINITION
- To read something aloud, typically with expression and clarity, often for an audience or for practice.
The key here is 'aloud.' When you use 朗读 (lángdú), it means you are vocalizing the text. Think of a teacher asking a student to read a passage aloud in class, or someone practicing a speech by reading it out.
老师让学生朗读课文。(The teacher asked the students to read aloud the text.)
她正在朗读一首诗。(She is reading aloud a poem.)
§ 阅读 (yuèdú): To Read (Generally)
- DEFINITION
- To read, whether silently or aloud, for comprehension, information, or enjoyment. It's a general term for the act of reading.
阅读 (yuèdú) is your go-to word for 'to read' in a general sense. It can be silent reading or reading aloud, but the focus is on understanding the content, not just vocalizing. You'll often see this in contexts like 'reading books,' 'reading newspapers,' or 'reading skills.'
我喜欢在睡前阅读。(I like to read before bed.)
提高阅读能力很重要。(It's important to improve your reading ability.)
§ 读 (dú): The Versatile 'Read'
- DEFINITION
- A very common and versatile verb meaning 'to read' or 'to study.' It can imply both reading silently and reading aloud, often taking on the meaning of its context.
读 (dú) is the most common and flexible of the three. It can mean 'to read' silently or aloud, 'to study,' or even 'to attend school.' Its meaning often depends on what you're reading or the surrounding context. It's often used when the act of reading is straightforward, without emphasis on comprehension (like 阅读) or vocalization (like 朗读).
When it means 'to read' (silently or aloud):
请读这个句子。(Please read this sentence.)
When it means 'to study' or 'to attend school':
他在大学读书。(He is studying at university.)
你的孩子读几年级？(What grade is your child in [literally 'reading which grade']?)
§ Quick Summary
朗读 (lángdú): Always implies reading aloud, often with a focus on clear pronunciation and expression.
阅读 (yuèdú): General term for reading, emphasizes comprehension and the act of reading for information or pleasure (can be silent or aloud).
读 (dú): The most common and versatile, can mean reading silently or aloud, studying, or attending school. Context is key here.
Practice using these words in different sentences. The more you encounter them, the more natural it will feel to pick the right one. Don't overthink it, but do pay attention to how native speakers use them.
How Formal Is It?
"学生们正在朗诵这首古诗。"
"老师要求我们大声朗读课文。"
"你把这个字念给我听听。"
"宝宝，妈妈给你读故事。"
"他上课老是吼课文，烦死了。"
Fun Fact
The character 朗 is often associated with brightness and clarity, which extends to the idea of clear pronunciation when reading.

neutralHow to Use It
When you want to say “to read something aloud,” use 朗读. It’s often used in educational contexts, like a teacher asking a student to read a text aloud, or when practicing pronunciation. You can use it for reading a poem, a passage, a script, or even just a few words out loud.
A common mistake is confusing 朗读 (lǎngdú) with 阅读 (yuèdú) or 读 (dú). 阅读 (yuèdú) means “to read” in general, like reading a book silently for comprehension. It focuses on understanding the content. 读 (dú) is a more general verb for “to read,” and can be used for both reading silently and reading aloud. However, when you specifically want to emphasize reading aloud, 朗读 is the more precise and natural choice. So, if you’re reading a novel for pleasure, you’d say 我在阅读小说 (Wǒ zài yuèdú xiǎoshuō - I am reading a novel). If you’re reading a text out loud to practice your pronunciation, you’d say 我在朗读课文 (Wǒ zài lǎngdú kèwén - I am reading the text aloud).
Word Origin
朗 (lǎng) means 'bright' or 'clear', and 读 (dú) means 'to read'.
Original meaning: The combination suggests reading clearly and distinctly.
Sino-Tibetan, Sinitic (Chinese)Cultural Context
When learning Chinese, reading aloud is a very common practice, especially in classrooms. It's believed to help with pronunciation, intonation, and memorization. Many Chinese learners find that reading aloud helps them internalize the language more effectively than just reading silently.

The structure '请把...朗读一遍' is a common way to make such a request. 请 (qǐng) means 'please', 把 (bǎ) is a pre-transitive particle, 这篇 (zhè piān) means 'this', 课文 (kèwén) means 'text' or 'lesson text', 朗读 (lǎngdú) means 'to read aloud', and 一遍 (yī biàn) means 'once through' or 'one time'.
This sentence describes someone who likes to read poetry aloud. 他 (tā) means 'he', 喜欢 (xǐhuān) means 'to like', 大声 (dàshēng) means 'loudly' or 'in a loud voice', 朗读 (lǎngdú) means 'to read aloud', and 诗歌 (shīgē) means 'poetry' or 'poems'. The adverb 大声 comes before the verb 朗读.

在文学社的期末表演中，小明以其富有感染力的声音，将那首古老的诗歌______，赢得了在场所有人的掌声。
“朗读”特指声音洪亮地读出文字，强调的是清晰和表达力。选项中，“阅读”是泛指看文字；“念诵”通常指反复地念，常用于经文；“吟唱”则带有歌唱的意味，不完全是“读”。语境中强调“富有感染力的声音”和“赢得掌声”，最符合“朗读”的语意。
面对着全班同学，他深吸一口气，开始______自己创作的剧本，希望能通过声音的魅力展现角色的内心世界。
句中提到“面对着全班同学”和“希望能通过声音的魅力展现”，明确指示了需要大声读出来以供他人听。因此，“朗读”是最佳选择。“默读”是无声阅读；“浏览”是快速粗略地看；“翻阅”是随意翻看，都不符合语境。
