Displaying word greater than 20

Hello 

I am working on the table screenshot below:

BeLocke_0-1732057088453.png

I am creating a third column to complement the first two above. Column 1 is if the value column contains a word length greater than or equal 20, it is true; otherwise, it is false. The value column is made up of sentences.

 

The formula for the first column is below:

= Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom1", "Word greater than 20", each if List.Max(
List.Transform(Text.Split([Value]," "),
each Text.Length(_)
)
) >= 20 then true else false)

 

The second column displays the word length number of the max word from the list.

Code Below:

= Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom2", "#lengthWord greater 20", each List.Max(
List.Transform(Text.Split([Value]," "),
each Text.Length(_)
)
))

 

Now, I need help creating a column that displays the max word from the value column; the length of that word should equal the second column.
