Their magic is pretty much the same thing. They use single words or short phrases to "turn into magic", so that isn't the problem.

Though I agree that due to Yomazu having more battle experience, being able to fight with his sword in addition to his magic and being physically stronger and more resilient it doesn't look good for Levy, though not completely hopeless.
