What reading level is The Language of the Dakota Or Sioux Indians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It sometimes happens that when " /<;," in the middle of a word, is followed by "«," this syllable "M" is dropped; hence, we have double forms, such as iKiuij andiui], [to anoint;)^ iiisiyuici and iiytiwi, [to bridle,) &c. But the greatest care is necessary not to confound this "/«" with the grammatical syllable "A;i," which is inserted in verbs to impart to them a more definite meaning, and is particularly incorporated in verbs indicating a special relation to ov for whom anything is done; as, for instance, oyalca, [to tell;) oKiyalca, [to tell to one, to somebody;) thus, omaKiyaka, [tell me,) &c. We have in the Dakota language also a very interesting system of consonantal permutations. Thus, among the liquids, a frequent (and often almost optional) interchange of I and n; for instance, boy is in the Dakota ]io1diL,a and /tofcsiNa, [I and n;) or, if we wish to compare the dialects of that language with one another, we have in Yanktonais LiLa for " very;" in the Titoo dialect the same ; in Sissitoq mNa, [I and n again interchanged.) Also the liquids n and m are interchangeable, often ad libitum, even within the limits of one and the same Dakota dialect; thus, for instance, the English preposition "■on," "upon," is in Dakota " aka?*" as well as " akam," &c.
