How It Works
The Sentence Counter tool uses a simple but smart formula to count sentences. It scans your text for punctuation marks like periods (.), exclamation marks (!), and question marks (?). To avoid confusion, it also ignores abbreviations (e.g., U.S.A.) and ellipses (…). The formula looks like this:
Total Sentences = (Total Punctuation Marks) - (Abbreviations + Ellipses)
Here’s a quick example table to show how it works:
| Text | Sentences Counted |
|---|---|
| Hello! How are you? | 2 |
| This is a test. It works great. | 2 |
| U.S.A. is a country. So is Canada. | 2 (abbreviation ignored) |
| Wait... is this working? | 1 (ellipsis ignored) |
