Nobody talks until he/she learns to read?

No, people can talk before, but we are talking about everyday "full on" learning, not babbling and broken sentences as a baby

The PRIMARY way in which children learn language is from the moment they are born and they are hearing their parents and others around them speak.

Understanding spoken speech comes first.
Learning to speak comes second.
Learning to read comes third.
Learning to write comes last.
