What reading level is A System of Phonetic Spelling Adapted to English book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
accented vowels, o, w, aud y, in unaccented syllables. The spelling itself is thus made to express all that is required for the correct accentuation of the word.
These obscure sounds are the most characteristic feature of the English accent. Most systems of phonetic spelling, however, have no means of expressing them. In some systems the iudefiniteness of sound of unaccented short vowels is iudii-ectly implied by marking the accented syllables ; but in many cases even this provision is neglecte...d, aud the accentua- tion is left to be inferred from a knowledge of the word.

The unaccented vowels w aud y are generally rejiresented in other systems by the letters u and i\ but the soi;nd y is also often represented by e.
