Easy-to-Read vs. Plain Language: The Difference
Easy-to-Read (Leichte Sprache)
Maximum accessibility for individuals with learning difficulties, cognitive impairments, or dementia.
- Strict rules for maximum simplicity
- One idea per sentence; each sentence on a new line
- No foreign words, metaphors, or passive voice
- Review by representative target audience testing panels
- Language level A1 / A2
Plain Language (Einfache Sprache)
Citizen-friendly communication for non-native speakers, people with low literacy, or readers pressed for time.
- Significantly clearer than complex legal/academic jargon
- Concise sentences, common vocabulary, logical flow
- Standard continuous prose layout is preserved
- Language level A2 / B1
