Common issues people run into

The user expects grammar correction rather than simple counting.

Fix: Remember that this tool counts structural units and does not rewrite the text.

Unusual punctuation or abbreviations affect the count.

Fix: Review the result manually if the text contains many edge cases.

The text is line-based rather than sentence-based.

Fix: Use a line or word counter if that matches the real need better.
