Which is more important reading or writing?

[sayed elbindary]

Reading and writing are-wthout doubt- two important skills in the four required skills of learning the English language. Reading is a means of language acquisition, of communication, and of sharing information and ideas.Readers use a variety of reading strategies to assist with decoding (to translate symbols into sounds or visual representations of speech, and comprehension. Readers may use morpheme, semantics, syntax and context clues to identify the meaning of unknown words. Readers integrate the words they have read into their existing framework of knowledge

Writing is the representation of language in a textual medium through the use of a set of signs or symbols (known as a writing system). It is distinguished from illustration, such as cave drawing and painting, and the recording of language via a non-textual medium such as magnetic tape audio.

But still which is more important of the two abovementioned skills?For any teacher the most important of all is speaking and this comes throough integrating bothe the skills of reading and writing.
