FAQ

Q: How are words counted?

A: Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace and filtering out empty strings. Hyphenated words like "well-known" count as one word.

Q: What counts as a sentence?

A: Sentences are counted by splitting on sentence-ending punctuation (. ! ?). This is an approximation — abbreviations like "Dr." may inflate the count.

Q: How is reading time calculated?

A: Reading time is estimated at 200 words per minute, which is an average adult silent reading speed. The result is rounded to the nearest minute (minimum 1 sec).
