Hi Vireak! No, you do not! Skimming means letting your eyes jump quickly over the text. You are just looking for the main idea, not trying to understand every detail. visibility

That is perfectly okay! If you don't know a word, just skip it. Look at the picture and read the easy words you DO know. They will usually tell you what the topic is. image
