Frequently asked questions

How is text split into words?

Words are runs of letters and numbers, including apostrophes and hyphens. Punctuation and extra spaces are ignored.

Is sorting case-sensitive?

No. 'apple' and 'Apple' sort together. When removing duplicates, the first spelling is kept.

How is this different from Sort Text Lines?

Sort Text Lines reorders whole lines. Word Sorter breaks text into individual words first, so a paragraph becomes a sorted word list.

Can I get one word per line?

Yes. Choose 'New line' as the separator.

Is my text sent anywhere?

No. All text tools run locally in your browser.

Do these tools support Unicode?

Yes. They handle Unicode text, including emoji and accented characters.
