It only does a single character for Japanese, including considering the period as a word.

I'll explain the above screenshot, just for clarity.

In the first question, is a particle, not a word. But that's okay.

In the second question, is the first character of the word トム Tom.

In the third question, I guessed because it was a likely sentence ending particle although it wasn't in the English text. The answer was which is the Japanese equivalent of the . period character.

Hi, I'm really sorry I didn't get back sooner. I agree this is a major problem, and I can fix the full stop issue right now. If you have any idea how I could check whether an arbitrary-length sequence of characters constitutes a full word in Japanese, I could properly fix it.
