Frequently Asked Questions
How is reading time calculated for text?
Reading time is based on the average adult reading speed of 200 words per minute for English text. This is a standard estimate widely used across the web. For technical or complex content, reading may take longer, and for simple content it may be faster.
Does it work with Chinese, Japanese, and other languages?
Yes, multilingual text is fully supported. Character counts work correctly for CJK scripts (Chinese, Japanese, Korean), Arabic, Cyrillic, and all Unicode languages. Word count uses language-appropriate methods for each writing system.
What statistics does the text analyzer provide?
You get word count, character count with and without spaces, sentence count, paragraph count, reading time estimate, speaking time estimate, average word length, and average sentence length. All stats update in real-time as you type or paste your text.
