Paste text and press Count to rank its words by how often they occur. Upper and lower case are treated as the same word.

## Example input

Repeated words

```
The cat sat on the mat. The dog sat on the log. The cat and the dog are friends.
```

19 total words, 10 unique; "the" comes first with 6, then cat, sat, on and dog with 2 each.

## FAQ

### How does it split text into words?

It lowercases the text and treats runs of Latin or Cyrillic letters and digits as words, ignoring punctuation. Other letters, such as é or ß, split a word, and "don't" becomes "don" and "t".

### Can it ignore common words like "the"?

There is no stop-word list; raise Min length (for example to 4) to hide short words. The total shown above the table still counts every word, including the hidden short ones.

### Is the text uploaded?

No. Counting happens in your browser when you press Count; the text does not leave the page.
