Syllable Counter & Word Analyzer
Count syllables in words and text, and analyze the text for total syllables, words, sentences, and estimated reading and speaking time. See each word with its syllable count and a sorted list of the most syllable-heavy words. The syllable counter uses a heuristic vowel-group algorithm with special-case handling for silent e, consecutive vowels, and common English patterns. Pairs with the Word Counter and Readability Score tools. Everything runs locally in your browser.
Words with syllable counts
Syllable counting in English is approximate — the heuristic handles silent 'e', doubled vowels, 'le' endings, and common exceptions, but will not match every dictionary entry. Useful for haiku, poetry, estimating reading time, and writing. Pairs with the Word Counter and Readability Score. Runs locally.
