Abstract
Literacy and illiteracy are phcnomenia typical for their relativity depending on the nature of a particular society and community, and as terms they arc characterised by multiple meanings which in many cases already have a very loose and sometimes purely associative link to in/ability to read, write or do simple arithmetic. At present one can distinguish a series of different types and kinds of il/literacy (e.g. functional, computer, foreign language, ecological, communicational. informational, music etc. etc il/literacy). Basically one can speak of three main groups, i.e. illiteracy in its original sense, its transferred sense, and the generalised sense of il/literacy. The current lack of consistency in ihc use of the term il/literacy is strongly reflected in widely used statistical data on il/literacy. The value of this data and its useability for urposes of comparison depends principally on answers to the questions of WHAT (is understood by il/literacy). WHO (is being judged from the point of view of il/literacy) and HOW (il/literacy is identified).
