Hi @Gokul,

You can enter to query editor to split your words and use group function to calculate count of each word.

Full query:

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSs/PT9FJSkxRitWBcsrzi4pLwFwwS0cpNhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column", type text}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Detail", each Text.Split([Column],",")),
    #"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom", "Detail"),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Expanded Custom", each [Detail] <> null and [Detail] <> ""),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Filtered Rows", {"Detail"}, {{"Count", each Table.RowCount(_), type number}})
in
    #"Grouped Rows"
