To read the book from the first to the fifth chapter.

In the winters, we used to read it (together) with classmate boys until (we) tore each issue of the journal into pieces.

meaning 1 to read (a book)

تَدَارَسَ القُرْآنَ ; تَدَارَسُوا الكِتَابَ حَتَّى حَفِظُوهُ


He read the Quran, i.e. he returned to it time after time, in order that he might not forget it. (itterative stem)

They read the book (read repeatedly, or studied it, or read and learned it, together, teaching one another), until they retained it in memory.

direction
meaning 2 to study, to attend lessons by such and such professor
reference BK: I 688 Lane: 871
comment The direction of shift is rather from B to A. The Hebrew cognate drš has the meaning 'to seek, to enquire about, to investigete, to search' (HALOT 233) - probably this develops into 'to study', and hence into 'to read'.

lexeme قَرَأَ qaraˀa
meaning 1 to read, recite

(قَرَأَ بصوت مسموع (~  جهرا

قَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ


He read, or recited (as a teacher, or an informant), to him the Quran (as a pupil, or learner).

reference Lane: 2503
comment

قَرَأَ signifies properly "he read, or recited, the Scripture chanting"; like as أَنْشَدَ properly signifies “he recited” poetry “chanting with a high voice", for Scripture and poetry are usually chanted. Then, he read, or recited, anything in any manner, without, or from, or in, a book. (Lane ibid.)

to read aloud -> to read (= recite) -> to study. learn
