Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tool count words?
Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace. Hyphenated words count as one word. Numbers count as words.
Does it count special characters?
Yes, special characters are included in the character count. The "without spaces" count excludes only space characters.
How accurate is the sentence count?
Sentences are counted by periods, exclamation marks, and question marks. Abbreviations with periods (like "Dr.") may affect accuracy.
Is there a text length limit?
No practical limit. Very long texts (millions of characters) may update more slowly but will work correctly.
