Remove Words From Text
Delete specific words from any text — enter your own list, or strip about 60 common English stop words. Matching is whole-word and case-insensitive, and leftover double spaces are cleaned up automatically.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I remove specific words from my text?
- Paste your text, enter the words to remove separated by commas or spaces, and click Remove Words. Every occurrence of each word is deleted with whole-word, case-insensitive matching, and leftover double spaces are collapsed automatically.
- What is the stop-word list option?
- Ticking "Also remove common stop words" adds a built-in list of about 60 high-frequency English words — the, a, an, and, of, to, in, is — to your removal list. This is useful for keyword extraction and text analysis, not for editing prose.
- Does it match partial words?
- No. Matching is whole-word only, so removing "cat" will not touch "catalog" or "scatter". Matching is also case-insensitive, so "The" and "the" are both removed if "the" is on your list.
- Can I remove multi-word phrases?
- The words field is split on commas, so a comma-separated entry like "in order to" is treated as one phrase and removed as a whole. Entries without commas are split on spaces and treated as individual words.
- Is my text sent to a server?
- No. The removal runs entirely in your browser — your text is never uploaded, stored, or shared.
