Azerbaijan possesses those who can be scribes.
Azerbaijan . It has a high rate of economic development and literacy , as well as a low rate of unemployment . Literacy is traditionally understood as the ability to read , write , and use arithmetic . The key to literacy is reading development , a progression of skills that begins with the ability to understand spoken words and decode written words , and culminates in the deep understanding of text . Reading development involves a range of complex language underpinnings including awareness of speech sounds ( phonology ) , spelling patterns ( orthography ) , word meaning ( semantics ) , grammar ( syntax ) and patterns of word formation ( morphology ) , all of which provide a necessary platform for reading fluency and comprehension .
