A level is a starting point.

These are approximate editorial reading guides, not certified CEFR assessments or a test of your proficiency. A classic’s range reflects this edition’s language; a short story’s label is its writing target. Familiarity with the subject and the help you use can change how a text feels.

You can read immediately once a title is in your Library. Translation, vocabulary checks, and chapter preparation are optional. Sign in to add a title and keep your place; account capacity and beta availability apply.
