One Guide : How to Make Texts More Understandable for Different Audiences

Step 1: Analyze Your Text with Hemingway App

After you've drafted your text or article, head over to Hemingway App. This tool is great for improving readability and clarity. Just paste your text into the app. It doesn't require a subscription for basic features, which include:

  • Highlighting sentences that are hard to read.

  • Identifying the use of passive voice and adverbs.

  • Suggesting simpler alternatives for complex words.

  • Showing the readability grade level of your text.

The app will analyze your text and provide a readability grade, indicating the education level needed to understand your content. It might also suggest aiming for a simpler grade level, like making your text understandable for a 9-year-old.

Step 2: Refine the Text Using ChatGPT

Take the text that Hemingway App analyzed and open ChatGPT. Use the following prompt to make your text simpler based on the Hemingway App’s feedback:

Prompt: Please rewrite the following text to suit a 9-year-old reading level. Focus on simplifying vocabulary, shortening sentences, and clarifying complex ideas without altering the fundamental message. Ensure the language is engaging and easy to understand for all readers.

Paste your text and let ChatGPT work on simplifying it. The AI will help adjust the language and sentence structure to match the readability level you’re targeting.

Step 3: Re-check Readability with Hemingway App

Once ChatGPT has provided a revised version of your text, copy this simplified text and paste it back into Hemingway App. Check if the readability grade has improved or aligns with the suggested grade level, like 9 years old. This step ensures that the changes effectively made the text easier to comprehend.

Step 4: Refine the Text Yourself

After using Hemingway App and ChatGPT, it’s a good idea to go through the text yourself. Add personal touches and ensure it still delivers your original message effectively. Human judgment is necessary to strike the right balance between simplicity and maintaining the text's intent and tone.

Final Thoughts:

This process helps make sure your content is accessible to a broader audience, improving understanding and engagement. By adjusting your text’s readability, you make your content more inclusive, ensuring it reaches and is understood by more people, regardless of their reading level.

One Prompt: Adapting Text for Non-Native Speakers

Since we’re on the topic. I want to share a prompt perfect for making tough topics easy and accessible for Non-Native speakers.

Simplify for Non-Native Speakers:

Prompt: "Transform the text below into simple English suitable for ESL (English as a Second Language) learners. Use basic vocabulary and short sentences to ensure clarity and ease of understanding. Remove complicated words, explain any difficult ideas in simple language, and use examples to help explain things better. Make sure non-native speakers can fully grasp the message without the barrier of complex language "
