The First Letter Counter works by analyzing your text and counting how many times each letter of the alphabet appears as the first letter of a word. Here's how it happens:
- Your text is split into individual words.
- The first letter of each word is identified (case doesn't matter).
- The tool tallies up how many times each letter appears as a starting letter.
- Results are displayed in a clean, easy-to-read table.
Here's a quick example of how it works:
| Letter | Count |
|---|---|
| A | 3 |
| B | 1 |
| C | 0 |
| D | 2 |
| E | 1 |
| F | 0 |
| G | 1 |
| H | 0 |
| I | 2 |
| J | 0 |
| K | 0 |
