The `PlainWords` method on a `Page` object calls the [`Plain`] method, then uses Go's [`strings.Fields`] function to split the result into words.
{{% note %}}
_Fields splits the string s around each instance of one or more consecutive whitespace characters, as defined by [`unicode.IsSpace`], returning a slice of substrings of s or an empty slice if s contains only whitespace._
[`unicode.IsSpace`]: https://pkg.go.dev/unicode#IsSpace
{{% /note %}}
As a result, elements within the slice may contain leading or trailing punctuation.
```go-html-template
{{ .PlainWords }}
```
To determine the approximate number of unique words on a page:
```go-html-template
{{ .PlainWords | uniq }} → 42
```
