How to Do It Manually

Count sentences by finding sentence-ending punctuation (. ! ?). Some tools handle abbreviations and edge cases.

Sentence Count = number of periods, exclamation marks, or question marks

Frequently Asked Questions

Does an ellipsis (...) count as a sentence ending?

Usually no, but it varies by tool. An ellipsis indicates an incomplete thought, not a sentence end.

What about abbreviations like 'Mr.' or 'Dr.'?

These periods don't end sentences. Advanced counters detect abbreviations; simple ones may overcount.
