How word count is calculated
Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace, so multiple spaces or line breaks don't inflate the count. Sentences are estimated by counting terminal punctuation (. ! ?). Reading time assumes an average reading speed of 200 words per minute, which is a common benchmark for adult silent reading.
