Why use it?
- For students and writers: It's helpful when you need to follow a word limit for essays or stories. You can focus on writing instead of counting words.
- For professionals: Good for checking the length of emails, reports, or social media posts so they don’t go over the limit.

- For anyone curious: If you just want to know how long something is, like a message or list, this tool can help.

It does more than count words:
- It also shows how many characters there are (with and without spaces) and how many lines your text has. Simple and complete.
- It’s easy to use, works fast, and helps you save time.
Does this count hyphenated words as one?
Yes, it usually counts hyphenated words (like "well-being" or "user-friendly") as one word. This follows how word counts are done in most schools or writing rules.
Do numbers and symbols count too?
Yes. Numbers and symbols (like 123, $, @) count as characters. If a number is part of a word (like "1st" or "v2.0"), it's counted with that word. If it stands alone, it counts as one word.
Can I use this for long text like a book chapter?
Yes, you can. The tool works for short texts and long ones, like full essays or chapters. It’s fast and can handle big chunks of text without problems.
Why would I need to know the line count?
Line count can be useful if you’re working on poems, code, scripts, or formats where line breaks matter. It helps you see how much vertical space your text takes up.
