Our smart sentence counter recognizes common abbreviations like Mr., Mrs., Dr., U.S., etc., and doesn't count them as sentence endings. It uses a combination of pattern matching and context analysis to distinguish between true sentence endings and abbreviations.
For most writing purposes, aim for an average of 15-20 words per sentence. However, variety is key. Mix shorter sentences (5-10 words) for impact with longer sentences (20-30 words) for detail. This creates rhythm and maintains reader engagement.
Search engines favor content that's easy to read. Shorter, clearer sentences improve readability scores, which can positively impact SEO. Our tool helps you optimize sentence length for both human readers and search algorithms.
Yes, the sentence counter works with multiple languages that use similar punctuation (., !, ?) for sentence endings. However, the abbreviation detection is optimized for English. For best results with other languages, you may need to manually check the sentence splits.
