It wants the characters, not the words.

let quoteSample = "The five boxing wizards jump quickly.";

let reg1 = /\w+/g; // Change this line
let reg2 = /\w/g; // Change this line

let result1 = quoteSample.match(reg1).length;
let result2 = quoteSample.match(reg2).length;

console.log(result1) // 6
console.log(result2) // 31
