How it's used
Refers specifically to someone who consumes written media, whether it is a newspaper, magazine, or book. While it is a standard noun, it often appears in formal contexts like newspaper columns or publishing, where it carries a slightly more detached tone than simply saying someone who reads.

Common mistake
Avoid using this to describe someone who is currently in the act of reading, as it refers to the person's identity or role rather than their immediate activity. Use 睇緊書嘅人 if you want to describe someone currently reading.
