Abstract

An essential issue in education is the discussion of reading texts. In this article, the aim is to study and compare the readability of the classic work of THE LITTLE PRINCE and its translations on the one hand and the audience of this work in different languages on the other hand. The classical works were compared and examined with four English, German, Italian, and Spanish in terms of readability and audience index. Random sampling of French text was done in 5 different sections. The corresponding sections of each of the samples of the French text were extracted from the translations, and then all the samples were examined using the flash readability index. This result indicates that the Flash index is not currently suitable for the Italian and Spanish languages. Therefore, according to the nature and language category, the flash readability index for these two languages should be adjusted.
