Other letters than A-Z in Word Counter?

Hello!

Regarding this article/app: https://css-tricks.com/build-word-counter-app/

Maybe I have missed something, but how would I go about including other, foreign letters? I am Swedish, so I would like the app to be able to hande these: ÅÄÖ/åäö.

Right now, writing one of these letters will split up the word and count it as two. For example, the Swedish word “bäbis” (baby) counts as two words, and the keyword just becomes “bis”.

Would be super thankful for any help here. ELI5 :)
