SENTENCE LENGTH |
To help establish the level of textual difficulty, this tool provides the number of words in each sentence in the text, highlighting the shortest and longest sentences with different colours, as well as the mean sentence length. On the basis of these data the user can estimate the potential level of difficulty, taking into account that an average sentence in English contains between 15 and 20 words, it can be considered a simplified sentence if its length is under 10 words and of high complexity if it contains more than 30 words (Sigurd et al., 2004). |
