Words as Text Units
![]()
If you place a carriage return after every word then your unit of analysis, or text unit, will be the word.
Can you visualize a document in which text units are defined as "words"?
Every line in the document would consist of a single word. Unless you are a linguist, it's unlikely you will ever want to choose the word as your unit of analysis.
