| has gloss | eng: A Readability test is a way to measure a text for how easy it is to read. There are different kinds of readability tests. They look at different things in a text, like how long the words are or how long the sentences are. A test uses a mathematical formula to find a number which says how easy it is to read the text. If two different tests look at the same things about a text, they could use different formulas. Many people write text, and they want it to be easy to read. A readability test can help these people decide how easy their text is to read. Sometimes the test can even suggest changes that will make the text easier to read. |
| has gloss | eng: Readability tests, readability formulas, or readability metrics are formulae for evaluating the readability of text, usually by counting syllables, words, and sentences. Readability tests are often used as an alternative to conducting an actual statistical survey of human readers of the subject text (a readability survey). Word processing applications often have readability tests in-built, which can be deployed on documents in-editing. |
