Looking good.

You're almost at the limit.

That's it. No more words.

About

20 Limit helps you write brief and clear sentences by limiting your word count to 20.

The limitation is only a suggestion.

20 Limit does not record or save content.

The Oxford Guide to Plain English recommends a sentence length of between 15 and 20 words.

"One reason for keeping to a 15-20 word average is that people are used to it," it states.

The guide references a 1960's study, which found the average sentence length to be 19 words.

While we've progressed since then, being succinct remains important.
