Word counter

Count words, Unicode characters and lines instantly.

Free

Count words, Unicode characters and lines as you type or paste text. Spaces and punctuation count as characters. When supported by your browser, word counts use language-aware segmentation rather than simply splitting on spaces.

◈ Local processingFree

How to use

  1. Type or paste text into the input area.
  2. Read the word, character and line totals; they update as the text changes.
  3. Copy or download the totals if you need to keep them.

Worked example

Example input

Hello world!

Example result

Words: 2
Characters: 12
Lines: 1

Limitations and details

Characters are Unicode code points, so one visible emoji can count as several characters. Word boundaries depend on the page language and browser support. Empty text has zero lines; a trailing newline creates another line.
