    “Functionally Illiterate” doesn’t mean that those people can’t read or write. But it does mean that they don’t understand what the words even mean.

    Or in other words. Just because you know how to do something doesn’t mean that you understand how it works. Lots of people drive cars or use computers but many of them have no real understanding on how they actually work.
