How it counts

Words are counted with your browser’s word-boundary rules, so it also works for languages written without spaces. Reading time assumes about 238 words a minute (about 500 characters a minute for Chinese, Japanese and Korean); speaking time assumes 150 words a minute.

Reading ease score

The Flesch reading-ease score appears only for English text. Treat it as a rough guide, not a quality grade.
