How to count word frequency
- Paste your text — an article, an essay, survey answers, a transcript — or load a .txt file.
- Choose what to count: English words, single Chinese characters, or 2–4 character Chinese phrases extracted automatically.
- Filter out stopwords and short words, read the table and chart, then export the results as CSV for a spreadsheet.
FAQ
How are Chinese phrases found without a dictionary?
The tool counts every 2, 3 and 4-character sequence in the text and keeps those that repeat, dropping any shorter sequence that only ever appears inside a longer, equally frequent one. That surfaces real terms like 「人工智能」 without needing a word list.
What are stopwords and should I turn them off?
Stopwords are grammatical filler — the, of, 的, 是 — that dominate any frequency list without saying anything about the topic. Keep them switched off for keyword research; switch them on when you are studying writing style.
Can I use this for keyword density?
Yes. The Share column is exactly keyword density: the number of times a word appears divided by the total number of counted tokens.
