What is a Word & Character Counter?
A word and character counter measures how much text you have written. This tool runs in your browser. Counts update as you type, with no Count button and no upload.
What does this tool count?
It reports words, characters (including spaces), characters without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, and lines. An estimated reading time is shown as a rough guide, not a precise measurement.
Word counting in different languages
Where the browser supports it, words are split with Intl.Segmenter using the page language. That helps with English as well as Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and Thai. If Segmenter is not available, a simpler fallback is used. Results are a practical estimate, not a linguistic analysis.
Privacy
Your text stays in the browser. It is not sent to NEXNARA servers and is not saved in cookies, local storage, or a database.
Common uses
People use a counter to check essay or caption length, stay within a limit, or get a quick sense of how long a passage may take to read. Treat sentence and reading-time figures as approximate.
FAQ
Does this tool store my text?
No. The text stays in your browser for this tool and is not uploaded, stored, or sent to analytics.
How are words counted?
When possible, the browser’s Intl.Segmenter splits words for the current page language. If that API is missing, the tool falls back to a simpler method that still treats CJK and Thai letters as words instead of only splitting on spaces.
Does it work with Korean, Japanese and Chinese?
Yes. Modern browsers can segment those languages. Counts can still differ from a dictionary or a publisher’s house style.
Are spaces included in character count?
The Characters figure includes spaces. Characters without spaces excludes whitespace. Emoji are counted as graphemes when the browser can do so, so a family emoji counts as one character rather than several code units.
How is reading time estimated?
It is a rough estimate based on about 200 words per minute. Reading speed varies by language and person, so the value is labeled as estimated.
