Kul shabd: 8chai : 3garam : 2meethi : 1aur : 1samosa : 1

How it works

saaf trims the sentence and kaato(text, " ") splits it on spaces into a list of words, so lambai(words) is the word count.

The tally uses an empty object {} as a notebook. For each word, if ginti[w] is still khali the word has not been seen yet, so it starts at 0; then the count goes up by one. Bracket access lets the word itself be the key.

chabiyan(ginti) returns the keys in the order they were first added, and a final loop prints each word with its count.
