Reading time is estimated at roughly 200 words per minute, a commonly used average for adult silent reading — actual reading speed varies a lot by reader, content difficulty, and language.
Sentence counting is based on simple punctuation detection (periods, question marks, exclamation points) and can miscount in unusual cases, such as abbreviations like "e.g." or decimal numbers. Paragraph counting looks for blank lines between blocks of text.
