Frequently Asked Questions
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time = word count ÷ reading speed (WPM). The default speed is 200 WPM — the average adult reading speed. Adjust the slider to match your pace.
How does it handle Chinese or Japanese text?
CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) text is counted by character, not word. When your text is mostly CJK, the calculator automatically switches to character-based counting using the Intl.Segmenter API for accuracy.
What is a good reading speed?
Average adult: 200–250 WPM. Speed readers: 400+ WPM. Comfortable speaking pace: 130–150 WPM. Academic/technical reading is often slower: 150–200 WPM.
