What reading level is The Verbalist book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is sometimes aslight variation made in English, to show that an affirmation is made asa condition. The mood is called 'subjunctive, ' because the affirmation_is subjoined to_ another affirmation: '_If I see the signal_, I willcall out. ' "Such forms as 'I may see, ' 'I can see, ' have sometimes been consideredas a variety of mood, to which the name 'Potential' is given. But thiscan not properly be maintained. There is no trace of any inflectioncorresponding to this meaning, as we find wit...h the subjunctive. Moreover, such a mood would have itself to be subdivided into indicativeand subjunctive forms: 'I may go, ' 'if I may go. ' And further, we mightproceed to constitute other moods on the same analogy, as, for example, an obligatory mood--'I must go, ' or 'I ought to go'; a mood ofresolution--'I will go, you shall go'; a mood of gratification--'I amdelighted to go'; of deprecation--'I am grieved to go. ' The onlydifference in the two last instances is the use of the sign of theinfinitive 'to, ' which does not occur after 'may, ' 'can, ' 'must, ''ought, ' etc.
