Sentence Counter

Count sentences in any text. The counter recognizes English terminators (. ! ?) and CJK full stops (。！？), ignores abbreviations like "Mr." or decimals like 3.14, and reports zero for empty input instead of ghost counts.

  • English & CJK punctuation
  • Abbreviation/decimal aware
  • Empty input = 0

Frequently Asked Questions

Which punctuation ends a sentence?

. ! ? and their CJK equivalents 。！？ — each counts as one sentence terminator.

Why doesn't "Mr. Smith" count as two sentences?

A period followed by a capitalized abbreviation or a digit (3.14) is not treated as a sentence end.

Is my text stored?

No — counting runs entirely in your browser.
