Word counts and vocabulary coverage

Inspect word counts and exact spelling overlap with this site's small vocabulary bank, entirely in your browser.

Coverage compares word spellings with this site's small vocabulary bank. Repeated words count as separate tokens; different spellings are also counted once each. Capitalisation and straight/curly apostrophes are treated alike. Hyphenated words and contractions count as one word; space-separated expressions count as separate words, without phrase recognition. Numbers and punctuation do not count. A match does not check the meaning in your sentence. This does not estimate CEFR, reading difficulty or your vocabulary size. Names, inflections and valid words may be outside this bank. No pasted text is sent, saved or added to the URL.

For Water, water!, the tool counts two word tokens and one different spelling. A match with the site's bank checks spelling only: it does not check the intended meaning or certify a reading level.
