How are words counted?
Words are counted using standard conventions — hyphenated words (e.g., 'zero-friction') are treated as single words. Numbers and abbreviations are also counted as words.
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time is calculated based on an average reading speed of 250 words per minute. This is the standard value used by popular word counting tools.
How are paragraphs counted?
Paragraphs are text blocks separated by blank lines. Each separate block of text is counted as a separate paragraph.
Are emoji and special characters counted correctly?
Yes! Emoji and complex characters are counted as single characters. Newline characters are not included in the character count.
