Paste Chinese text below to count words using smart segmentation. Characters, sentences, and reading time included.
Chinese text doesn't use spaces between words, so we use the browser's Intl.Segmenter API with Chinese language settings to identify word boundaries. This provides accurate word segmentation based on dictionary-based analysis. If your browser doesn't support this API, each CJK character is counted as one word as a fallback.
Reading time is estimated at 350 characters per minute, which is the average silent reading speed for Chinese text. This is different from English, where reading speed is measured in words per minute.
Yes. Both simplified and traditional Chinese characters fall within the same Unicode ranges and are counted and segmented correctly.
