Count sentences and analyze text structure
Our tool identifies sentences by detecting sentence-ending punctuation marks: periods (.), exclamation marks (!), and question marks (?). It splits the text at these points to count individual sentences accurately.
A sentence is defined as a sequence of words ending with a period, exclamation mark, or question mark, followed by a space. Sentences must contain at least one word to be counted.
This metric is calculated by dividing the total word count by the number of sentences. It helps analyze sentence complexity and readability. Lower averages indicate shorter, simpler sentences.
Reading time estimates how long it would take an average reader to read your text. It's calculated based on a standard reading speed of 200 words per minute, which is commonly used in reading apps and platforms.
Yes, our algorithm is designed to handle common abbreviations. However, for specialized text with unusual abbreviations, you may want to review the sentence list to ensure accurate counting.
The tool treats punctuation within quotes as regular sentence endings. For example: "Hello!" she said. would be counted as one sentence ending at the exclamation mark.
