game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	Player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
		local words = 0
		local split = msg:split(" ")
		for i = 1,#split do
			if split[i]:len() > 1 then
				words += 1
			end
		end
		print(words)
	end)
end)

OR

You can use what @kalabgs wrote above, both ways work.

local function GetStringWordsAmount(Text : string)
	return #string.split(Text," ")
end


game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	Player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
		print(GetStringWordsAmount(msg))
	end)
end)
