Online Character Count Tool
Unlike most word counters that are built for English-only text, our tool automatically detects whether you are typing in Arabic or English and applies the correct counting logic. Arabic text is counted with consideration for diacritics (tashkeel), compound words with “Al” (ال), and attached prepositions — giving you accurate results that generic tools cannot provide.

Arabic Text Counting — Why It Matters
Arabic text has unique characteristics that make standard English-oriented word counters unreliable:
- Diacritics (Tashkeel): Marks like fatha, damma, and kasra are not letters — our counter ignores them in word counts.
- Attached prepositions: Letters like “waw” (و), “fa” (ف), “ba” (ب), and “lam” (ل) attach directly to words. Our engine handles this correctly.
- Definite article “Al” (ال): Recognized as part of the word rather than a separate token.
- Reading speed: Arabic readers average ~180 words per minute vs. ~225 for English, so reading time estimates differ.
Using This Tool for Contracts and Invoices
When drafting a Service Agreement, Invoice Terms, or any legal document, keeping text clear and concise is critical. Our long sentence detector flags complex clauses, the readability score helps you gauge comprehension difficulty, and the entity counter ensures you haven't missed any numbers, dates, or currency values before sending.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the language detection work?
It analyzes the Unicode character ranges present in your text. If more than 50% of the letters are Arabic characters, it switches to Arabic mode. Mixed-language text is flagged accordingly.
Is my text sent to any server?
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, stored, or transmitted.
Does this tool work on mobile?
Yes. The interface is fully responsive and works on phones, tablets, and desktops.
