What reading level is Among the Natives of the Loyalty Group book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After an interval of separation the Lifuans showed great cordiality, and indulged in many demonstrations of affection on meeting their friends ; so also when a messenger arrived with good news. They clasped each other by the arms or shoulders, saying joyfully, " Ixeime." The orthodox way, however, was for one man to put out his hand — ^palm upwards — exclaiming " Ixeime," when his friend brought his hand down upon it with a hearty smack. This was especially the case with those who called each o...ther by the name of '' Enemu,"' for " Enemu "" meant something almost more than friend. If you took a man for your " Enemu "' you gave him access to your house, your food, your goods, and undertook to stand by him in trouble. A big chief sometimes adopted a stranger as his Enemu, and no one, after that, dare harm the man, or offend him in any way.
The Lifuan language is very soft and liquid, one word running into another, making it very pleasant to the ear. Occasionally one may almost guess the meaning of a word by the way it is spoken.
