Definition of โ€œwordโ€

See also words from string (Z13402). Tokenization by whitespace could be generalized to tokenization by delimiter(s). If punctuation is suppressed by whitespace substitution or inclusion within delimiters, we converge on a common function.

In the domain of lexical forms, conventions vary by language. In English we have a particular difficulty with hyphens and apostrophes (occasionally described by the misnomer โ€œinterpunctionโ€).

  • The string โ€œdonโ€™tโ€ is generally regarded as equivalent to โ€œdo notโ€, which is two words, not one.
  • The string โ€œcanโ€™tโ€ is generally regarded as equivalent to โ€œcannotโ€, which might be considered a single word.
  • Contraction of โ€œisโ€ to โ€œโ€™sโ€ may be indistinguishable from a possessive, so a whitespace-delimited string ending โ€™s may be considered either one word or two (whereas such a string ending sโ€™ is always a single word, if correct).
  • Compound words are typically hyphenated in some contexts and left as separate words in others. A โ€œwell-knownโ€ distinction is one that is well known. Sometimes a form with neither hyphens nor spaces may be used (see, for example, https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=wellknown%2Cwell-known%2Cwell+known&year_start=1800&year_end=2000&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3.)
