Xiao xue 小学
Elementary school.
Stumbled upon this interesting little blog readability test. As you can see by the xiao xue rating, the test doesn't think much of the compositional sophistication of this blog.
The way I see it, this could be a result of:
1) engineer bloggers
2) the author's intentional pandering to an uneducated readership
3) inherent bias against Chinese words (c'mon, how many Elementary school kids do you know that have the basic Chinese reading skills necessary to understand this blog?)
4) software bug in test script
