| Abstract(in English) | In this paper, we metrically analyzed some famous English books on tourism and compared these with English journalism TIME and Newsweek. First, the most frequently used characters and words in each material and their frequency were obtained. Then, we calculated the K-characteristic. As a result, the values of the K-characteristic for the materials on tourism are high, compared with the journalism. We also derived the degree of difficulty through the variety of words and their frequency. It has been cleared that the books published earlier or with higher specialty are more difficult to read than journalism. |
