Why Sentence Length Matters

Sentence length significantly impacts readability. Short sentences (1-10 words) create impact and clarity. Medium sentences (11-20 words) provide good flow and are ideal for most content. Long sentences (21+ words) can be complex and may reduce readability. Our tool shows you the distribution of sentence lengths in your text.

Understanding Reading Time

Reading time is calculated based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute for silent reading. This varies by individual, but it's a standard metric used by publishers and content platforms. Speaking time uses 130 words per minute, which is the average speaking pace for presentations and podcasts.
