Abstract
A method of reading a nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of pages coupled to a plurality of word lines and a plurality of bit lines, each of the plurality of pages including a data region storing a data and a flag region storing a flag, includes applying a first read voltage to a selected word line to generate first sensing data and a first sensing flag; applying a second read voltage to the selected word line to generate second sensing data and a second sensing flag, generating determination data by performing a logical operation on the first and second sensing data; determining a shift voltage based on the determination data and the read flag; and applying a third read voltage, based on the shift voltage, to the selected word line to generate a read data.
