Readability Formulas

Text comprehension will suffer if the readability level is not accessible to the students. Readability formulas predict text complexity, assisting in appropriate text selection that complements students’ reading abilities to improve their language development. Therefore, the study aims to find out the reading index of the prose forms in the literature component catered to lower secondary school students ages 13 and 14 years old in Form One (seventh grade) and Form Two (eighth grade) classrooms in Malaysia. The reading index is measured by using four readability formulas which are Dale-Chall, Fog, SMOG, and Flesch-Kincaid that focuses on the words, sentences, syllables, and polysyllable words. These formulas are used to predict the level of difficulty of the prose forms. The reading index calculated from these readability formulas reveals the grade level of the prose forms. The grade level indicates the best age for reading and understanding the prose forms. Two prose forms were chosen as samples in the study. A passage is chosen from each prose form to be uploaded using the online tool. The indices obtained from the readability formulas predicted that both of the prose forms were below students’ reading age. The study implicates reading index must be taken into consideration in literary texts selection because it is an indicator of the years of education that an individual requires to comprehend the literary text clearly. Suitable reading material at students’ age level can enhance literature learning and teaching in the ESL classroom.

In this paper the author discuss the methods that can applied to select reading material that is appropriate to the reading ability of students. The old assumption that books or materials that written for a certain level is appropriate for all students in that particular level, needs to be changed. This is because students who isin a certain level have different reading abilities. Therefore, this paper will introduce the understanding of readability factors as one way of selecting appropriate reading material for students. The level of readability for reading materialsare influenced by a variety of factors, including the reader, environment and reading material. This article focuses on reading material factors such as clear font size and style, illustration and colour, vocabulary and sentence structure. Further, this article will present text difficulty analysis through the analysis of vocabularies. This paper conclude that vocabulary factor should not be overlooked and teachers must understand this because reading materials can be difficult when vocabulary that appear in the reading material does not fit to the level of the reader.

Conceptual Semantics

AbstractNatural language understanding systems have to exploit various kinds of knowledge in order to represent the meaning behind texts. Getting this knowledge in place is often such a huge enterprise that it is tempting to look for systems that can discover such knowledge automatically. We describe how the distinction between conceptual and linguistic semantics may assist in reaching this objective, provided that distinguishing between them is not done too rigorously. We present several examples to support this view and argue that in a multilingual environment, linguistic ontologies should be designed as interfaces between domain conceptualizations and linguistic knowledge bases.
