Languages may get the writing system they deserve or merely a writing system they can live with-adaption without optimization. A universal theory of reading reflects the general dependence of writing on language and the adaptations required by the demands of specific languages and their written forms. The theory also can be informed by research that addresses a specific language and orthography, gaining universality through demonstrating adaptations to language and writing input.
语言可能会得到它们应得的文字系统，或者只是它们可以接受的文字系统——没有优化的适应。阅读的普遍理论反映了文字对语言的普遍依赖，以及特定语言及其书写形式的要求所需要的适应。该理论还可以通过研究特定的语言和正字法来得到补充，通过展示对语言和书写输入的适应来获得普遍性。
