Readability scales use factors like number of syllables per word and average length of sentences and paragraphs to estimate how easy (or difficult) a piece is to read. The score is often expressed as a grade level.
Example: A score of ~13+ suggests the text may require more than the average high school education to read comfortably, while a ~6–7 score is typically much easier.
