What reading level is The Pygmies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Man has given a list of seventy-one terms, each indicating a degree of re- lationship, and specifying at the same time the relation of age existing between the speaker and the person in ques- tion.
The practice of frequent adoptions adds greatly to this complication, from which comes also the idea that relationship does not extend to more than three genera- tions. . Father and mother use different words in speak- ing of a son. The former calls him he whom I have he- gotten ; the latter, he whom... I have borne. This in itself shows us what part these islanders attribute to each sex in the act of generation.
The distinction of ages is always observed. In speak- ing to an older relative, the title 7naiola^ which we have seen to be that of the secondary chief, is added to his name ; in speaking to a younger relative, he is called by his name only. The same distinction is observed in re- gard to women, but the terms are different.
Within families the relations between the individuals Digiti zed by Google 104: THE PYGMlEa of the two sexes show great delicacy.
