Reading grade

How hard is it to read?

This guide assigns each translation a reading grade level. The order below is that number — not a judgment of accuracy.

Reading level does not measure theological quality, accuracy, or spiritual value.

Reading grade describes the difficulty of the English, not the quality or accuracy of the translation.

Now showing Guided. The listed reading-grade numbers, compared, with a caveat that this is not accuracy.
