What Is Word Splitter?

Word-level analysis starts with one word per line. Doing it manually on an article takes hours for what should be one click.

Paste your text and get a clean per-word list back.

If you're running frequency analysis, you skip writing a tokenizer. If you're building vocabulary lists, you check content against age-band words. If you're prepping NLP corpora, you produce token streams instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are word boundaries detected?

Whitespace and most punctuation. Hyphens often join compounds.

Tip: Strip punctuation first for stricter splitting.

Are hyphenated words kept together?

By default yes. Toggle to split on hyphens for stricter tokens.

Tip: Data scientists usually split, linguists usually keep.

Does it lowercase words?

No, case is preserved. Run Lowercase first for frequency analysis.

Tip: Lowercase first to merge 'Apple' and 'apple' counts.

Are contractions split?

'Don't' stays as one word by default.

Tip: Use a contraction expander first for 'do not' as two words.

Works on non-English?

Whitespace-delimited languages yes. CJK needs a specialized segmenter.

Tip: Chinese and Japanese have no inter-word spaces.

What about numbers?

Numbers are their own tokens like words.

Tip: Run Remove Numbers first for pure vocabulary.
