You have widely read.



Does the above sound good and make sense? Thanks.

I'm afraid it's not quite right. The usual expression is

You are widely read.

...or You have read widely.

Incidentally, 'widely read' as an adjective phrase can be a bit tricky. Normally, when a person is widely read, they have read widely. But when you name an author - e.g. "Dan Brown is widely read" you mean that a lot of people have read his work.

Thanks, Horsa and Bob.
To make sure, how do you utter the read in "widely read?" Is it pronounced the same as the past and past participle "read?"
