Hi RodrigoAC
1. Click on Transform Data in the ribbon to get to Power Query.
2. Then, in the Home tab, go to Split Column and click on By Delimeter.
3. Then, use the following criteria from below screenshot:
4. Close and Apply.
5. Now just drag the Column with the words into the table.
6. Do the same as step 5 and then select "Count" on the second Column you brought in to give you the count of each.
Hope that helps 🙂

Thanks guys for the awsome solutions. I pointed them both as a solution for this problema since each one has a different kind of outputs and other uses.
That was pretty straightfoward and solved my case! Thanks to TheoC and ryan_mayu for the fast reply!
Appreciate it!
