 Replying to [comment:1 pento]:
 > Side note: the Word test was done with Word Online, which appears to
 just split by whitespace to determine words, Word for Android appears to
 do the same. I don't know if the desktop versions have a more complex word
 count algorithm.

 Word 2011 for Mac also seems to just split whitespace.
