i wonder if there's a constant average reading speed (in terms of bits per second) across written languages. chinese is obviously more dense per symbol than english, but is each character processed more slowly as a result, preserving constant data rate across languages? also interesting to consider how much harder real time, verbal translation would be if data rates differed.
