What does Shakespeare mean when Othello says i understand a fury in your words but not your words?
Othello doesn't say this. Desdemona does. Othello is ranting at her about how she has been unfaithful to him, and she doesn't know what he is talking about. She knows he is angry, she can read his emotion and the "fury in [his] words", but she doesn't know why he is saying what he is saying: "I understand . . . not your words."
Why are shakespeares' plays hard for modern readers to understand?
The main reason Shakespeare's plays are difficult for modern readers to understand is that they are mostly written in poetry and quite dense and difficult poetry at that. Shakespeare also often writes in long and complicated sentences which are tricky to unravel. Although a lot of people focus on unusual words in Shakespeare's vocabulary, these are not the most significant reasons why his plays are hard to understand. For example, Macbeth says "But here, upon this bank and shoal of time, we'd jump the life to come." Every word is a perfectly ordinary modern word which Shakespeare uses with its modern meaning. There isn't even the odd syntax he sometimes uses to improve the rhythm of his lines. And yet this is a difficult line to understand. Why does Shakespeare have Macbeth compare time to a river, and the present to a bank or shoal? Why jump the future?

How can reading out loud help you understand difficult lines in Shakespeare's?
Speaking and hearing the rhythm of blank verse makes it familiar. When reading , you tend to gloss over words that seem unfamiliar; if you have to say them all the time, they become familiar. Reading out loud gives you a sense of the quality of the words, where they sound in the mouth, and how Shakespeare organizes sounds to enhance his meaning. Say, "the shard-borne beetle with his drowsy hums" slowly and carefully and you can almost hear the buzzing of the beetle.
