讀出秒數,用以提醒時間。如拳擊賽時,裁判對被擊倒的一方,進行讀秒;火箭發射在倒數時刻的讀秒;西洋人在除夕夜最後十秒的讀秒等。

Editor: I think it wouldn't be clear what's intended if we put "down" in parenthesis.
For example, it might suggest that 读秒 needs to be used in conjunction with another word such as 倒序 if it's a countdown.

Anyway, it seems to be quite rare for 读秒 not to be a countdown.

Ex. (a Go match)
「老師……您還有一分五十二秒……」
侯永平顛簸聲調讀秒時,王鵬飛低吟著催眠般的語音召喚老友……
Diff:
# 讀秒 读秒 [[du2miao3]] /to count (down) the seconds/
 
讀秒 读秒 [[du2miao3]] /to count down the remaining seconds (e.g. in games, rocket launches, New Year's Eve)/(of a boxing referee) to administer the count following a knock-down, starting from "one"/
