study
Pore over books
Study centers on applying the mind to learn or understand something.
You study for an exam, study a foreign language, or study someone's face for clues to their mood.
A study is also the product of such effort—a research paper or detailed analysis: a study on climate change.
In a home, a study is a room devoted to reading and intellectual work.
In art, a study is a preliminary sketch exploring composition or technique.
To be a study in contrasts is to embody opposing qualities.
