Frequently Asked Questions

How are words counted?

Words are counted by splitting the text on whitespace and punctuation. Hyphenated words (like "well-known") are counted as a single word. Numbers and symbols alone are not counted as words.

How are sentences detected?

Sentences are detected by looking for ending punctuation (., !, ?) followed by a space or newline. The tool accounts for common abbreviations, initials, and decimal numbers to avoid false sentence breaks.

How is the reading time calculated?

Reading time is calculated based on an average reading speed of 225-250 words per minute for adults reading prose text. Speaking time is calculated at approximately 150 words per minute, which is a common conversational pace.

What is the readability score?

The readability score is based on the Flesch-Kincaid readability tests, which estimate how difficult a text is to understand. The score ranges from 0-100, with higher scores indicating easier readability. The reading level provides a grade-level equivalent of the text's complexity.
