How paragraphs are counted
A paragraph is a block of text separated from the next block by one or more blank lines. Several blank lines in a row still count as a single separator, so the paragraph total stays accurate.
Editors and teachers use paragraph counts to check structure, and bloggers use them to keep articles easy to scan.
What the tool reports
- Paragraphs: blocks of text separated by blank lines
- Lines: total number of lines
- Blank lines: empty lines between blocks
- Words: total word count
💡 Tip: Short paragraphs of 2 to 4 sentences are easier to read on mobile screens.
