Frequently Asked Questions
How is reading time calculated?▾
Average adult reading speed is ~200–250 words per minute for general content; faster (~300 wpm) for casual reading and slower (~150 wpm) for technical material. The Word Counter uses 225 wpm as the default — a reasonable middle ground for most blog posts and articles.
What are common social-media character limits?▾
X/Twitter: 280 (480 for Premium). Instagram caption: 2,200. Facebook post: 63,206 (but ~250 for engagement). LinkedIn post: 3,000. SMS: 160 chars per message (longer texts split or use Unicode multi-part). Meta description: ~155–160 for search results. The Character Counter shows live progress against each.
How do these word tools handle other languages?▾
The word and character counters work for any Unicode text — including Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, etc. Note: "word count" relies on whitespace separators, which works well for European languages but not for languages without spaces (Chinese, Japanese, Thai). The unscramblers and Wordle helper are English-only.
Is the Wordle helper allowed?▾
Wordle has no rules against using a helper — it's a personal puzzle. Many players use the green/yellow/grey filter to learn the wordlist or play in "expert mode" with their own constraints. Use it however you want.
Where does the dictionary come from?▾
The Word Unscrambler uses a 275,000-word English wordlist (combining standard dictionary words plus common proper nouns). The 5-letter helper uses the official Wordle answer list plus the broader guess list — about 12,000 words total.
