Questions, answered

Can I control which words get removed?

You set the interval (every n-th word). Short words can be skipped so blanks stay meaningful.

Do I get an answer key?

Yes — the tool shows a numbered answer key alongside the worksheet, both printable.

Is there a length limit?

You can paste long passages; for printing, a paragraph or two per page works best.
