It's that wonderful time of the year – graduation commencements! I'd like to share one of the standout speeches from this year by Jerry Seinfeld. This speech is 16 minutes long and consists of 2,607 words (approximately 156 words per minute). It scores a 6.7 on the Gunning Fog Index, making it accessible at a 5th-grade reading level, and averages 9.51 words per sentence. Jerry Seinfeld’s speech follows a straightforward structure: tell the audience what you're about to tell them, tell them, then recap what you just told them. It’s simple, concise, and perfectly balanced with rhythm and cadence.
