It means that producing written words – that's to say, reading them out loud – improves our memory of them. The production effect has been replicated in numerous studies spanning more than a decade. They were able to recall 27% of the words they had read aloud, but only 10% of those they'd read silently.
The research, published in the journal Memory, finds that the act of reading and speaking text aloud is a more effective way to remember information than reading it silently or just hearing it read aloud. The dual effect of both speaking and hearing helps encode the memory more strongly, the study reports.

The loud reading is a form of reading in which the reader is at the top of his voice. The main difference between the loud reading and the silent reading is that in the silent reading the meaning of the words is most important, while in the loud reading, the pronunciation of the word is most important.
