Frequently Asked Questions

A word is any run of characters separated by spaces, tabs or line breaks. Hyphenated words such as well-known count as one word.

Reading time assumes 200 words per minute, and speaking time assumes 130 words per minute. Both are averages, so treat them as estimates.

Both figures are shown: characters with spaces and characters without spaces, so you can match whichever limit you are writing to.
