The issue is the words with small letters where there is no , or .. How do i split the words?
@backuserichsen I'm not sure what you mean by split the words. Can you share your results so far and highlight the problem areas?

@AllisonKennedy as you can see inn the wordcloud i get the ful colum when i applay the wordcloud. I can't seem to find out how to split the words in the column as they have more then one delimiter. And i am also not sure how to split words that has noe delimiter between them.
@backuserichsen You can't split that data as there is no pattern or delimiter for it. What is the raw data source? Why have the spaces between words been removed?

Hey @AllisonKennedy
The data source is the Warrant Buffet letters to the stakeholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. This is a school task and the task question is a follow
Task 2.1 (20 Points) Word Cloud
Investor Warrant Buffet has a habit of writing letters to the stakeholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc,
most of which are available online at https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/letters/letters.html.
Make a word cloud of Buffet’s letter from 2021, using Power BI.
Hi @backuserichsen ,
As far as I know, you can split column by delimiter.
For reference:
For the value which has noe delimiter between strings, I think you couldn't split them automaticlly.
Best Regards,
Rico Zhou
