Brielle answers “How do I understand the language in Pride...”

Sadie asked this question about Pride and Prejudice:

How do I understand the language in Pride and Prejudice? I'm 13 and we haven't studied it in school but I would like to read it for fun but I can't understand even the first page! Can someone please help me out!

Brielle I suggest you start first with reading other classic books.

It is in this way that I was able to little by little discern and understand classic style of writing. In fact, the first novel that I read (which when i was 12 years old) that eventually made my pitiful self into a bookwork is Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Brontë, which is a classic. I had never yet read a novel until that, and it came to be a first great read. I thought i wouldn't understand it first of all, because it is a classic, but when I started reading it, so on I continued and when I finished the book, I was amazed to find myself to like classics.

So take time with other classic books first until your powers can already take Pride and Prejudice xD
