Word Counter

The word counter analyzes your text in real time as you type. It counts words by splitting on whitespace, characters including and excluding spaces, sentences by detecting punctuation marks, and paragraphs by counting non-empty line groups.

Reading time is estimated based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute. Speaking time uses an average speaking speed of 130 words per minute. These are standard averages used across the publishing industry.

The Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level indicates the U.S. school grade level needed to understand the text. The Flesch Reading Ease score ranges from 0-100, where higher scores indicate easier readability. A score of 60-70 is considered standard for most audiences.

Stop words are common words like 'the', 'is', 'at', 'and', 'a' that are excluded from keyword density analysis because they appear frequently in all text and don't carry significant meaning for content analysis.
