What reading level is Dictionary of Americanisms book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Like squinting, the king and the beggar may be equally afflicted with the imperfection. There be your well-dressed moneyed loafer, as well as your loafer who is nightly taken by the watch.
" He is that kind of a man, who, having nothing to do, or being unwil- ling to do any thing, cannot keep his tediousness to himself, and therefore bestows it all upon others, not when they are at leisure for conversational recreation, but when business presses, and they would look black upon the intrusion of ...a sweetheart or a three-day wife. He is the drag-chain upon industry, and yet so far different from the drag-chain, that he hitches to the wheel when the pull is up hill. Loving the excitement of busy scenes, yet too lazy to be an actor in them, where men are busiest, there too is to be found the pure, unadulterated loafer, sprawling about as the hound sprawls before the fire in everybody's way, and tripping up everybody's heels. In the store, he sits upon the counter, swinging his useless legs, and gaping vacantly at the movements around him.
