How to read $f(K)=bigcup_{kin K}langle f,krangle$ and what it means, mathematically
$begingroup$
Let $E$ be a real Banach space and let $K$ be a subset of $E$. Suppose for each $fin E^{*}$, the set
$$f(K)=bigcup_{kin K}langle f,krangle$$
is bounded in $Bbb{R}$. Then, $K$ is a bounded subset of $E.$
Question:
How to read $f(K)=bigcup_{kin K}langle f,krangle$ and what does it mean, mathematically?

I'm not a native English speaker but I think it's read something like this: $f$ of $K$ equals (pause) the union of $f$ dot $k$'s where the union is taken over all $k$'s in $K$. Also, mathematically, the equality you have written is kind of weird. I think it's better to write it as $f(K)=bigcup_{kin K}{langle f,krangle}$.

I can tell you what it means mathematically, but I prefer to leave your question about how you should read the symbols out loud to a native English speaker.
A functional $f$ is a function $f: E to mathbb{R}$ (sometimes $mathbb{C})$ that takes a vector in $E$ and outputs a real(complex) number. When you have a Hilbert space, every functional arises as $varphi: E to mathbb{R}$ where $varphi(cdot)=langle v,cdotrangle$ for some $v in E$. This follows from the Riesz representation theorem for Hilbert spaces.
Because of this, you can denote a functional $f$ using the bra-ket notation which is popular in physics and real analysis. Note that a Banach space does not necessarily have to be an inner product space. So, when we're dealing with a Banach space, $langle f, k rangle$ is just a notation that means the evaluation of $f$ at $k$. Your equality is now this:
$$f(K) = bigcup_{kin K} {f(k)} =bigcup_{k in K} {langle f,krangle}$$

Since $K$ is a Banach space $langle f,k rangle$ is the evaluation of $f$ at $k$ where $fin E^*$ is a functional on $E$ (i.e. $f(k)$). So $f(K)$ here is defined completely literally: it's the union of the evaluation of the functional $f$ at each point $kin K$.
The point of writing it this way though, is that the norm of $f$ is $|f| = sup_{|k|=1} |langle f,k rangle |$ so this is suggestive of how to go about proving boundedness.
