CVLA: CEFR-based Vocabulary Level Analyzer (ver. 2.0)

CVLA assigns CEFR levels to the words based on CEFR-J Wordlist (Created by Y. Tono). An estimated level of the input text is displayed based on 4 textual features (ARI, VperSent, AvrDiff, and BperA; detailed explanation will appear after submission). This website is created by Satoru UCHIDA. This is the second edition of the CVLA, which works faster and shows results per sentence. The results may be slightly different from the former version due to the implementation difference (perl vs. python). Note that the Listening mode is based on scripts only. The difficulty level varies depending on the quality of the audio, noise, speaking speed, etc. Your feedback is truly appreciated. (kyudai.uchida.lab[at]gmail.com)
