Default specific language word count

You can use the Find function.
Press Ctrl+F to open Find dialog.
Leave the Find what box empty, check the Highlight all items found in [Main
Document], click More button. Format, Language, select the language you want
to find. OK, Find All button.
Close the Find dialog, and without click in the document, goto the Word
Count (if in 2007 you can have this displayed in the Status bar).
Repeat for the languages you want.

Hope this helps

Hello I have a word document with text in Spanish, English and Arabic. Is
there a way to count the number of words in one specific language? (i.e.
total word count is 2652 words but how many are spanish, how many english and
how many Arabic?)

Thanks for your time
