Open Word CounterFrequently Asked Questions
Which languages does the word counter support?
Our word counter works with all languages that use spaces between words (English, Spanish, French, German, etc.) and provides character counting for character-based languages (Chinese, Japanese). We support 15+ languages with language-specific statistics.
Is the word counter accurate for non-English text?
Yes. Our tool counts words by detecting word boundaries (spaces, punctuation). This works accurately for all space-separated languages. For Chinese and Japanese, we recommend using character count as the primary metric.
