Definition
浏览 (liúlǎn) means 'to browse, to skim' — you look through content quickly without reading every detail, like news headlines or a website. It's different from 阅读 (yuèdú), which means careful, thorough reading of books or articles. 涉猎 (shèliè) is similar but implies broad, cursory reading across many subjects, while 阅览 (yuèlǎn) is a formal term for browsing materials in a library or archive.
