To check the word count in TextEdit on a Mac, you can select the text you want to analyze and then go to the "Edit" menu and choose "Show Word Count." Alternatively, you can also view the word count by enabling it in the preferences under "Show Word Count" to display it in the bottom left corner of the window. In versions of TextEdit that do not support this feature, you may need to copy the text into another application, like Pages or Microsoft Word, to get an accurate word count.
