There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

If you're reading something and you don't understand a word, should you stop and research it or should you keep reading the whole thing first? (self.nostupidquestions)

As others have said here context is important. Are you reading just for fun? If yes, is it important to understanding what you're reading? If yes, look it up, otherwise either try to assume the meaning of the word through the context of the text or ignore it for now and look it up later.
