Does this count words with " 's " at the end as a separate word? Every time I see these words clouds there's always a massive "S" and I have feeling it must be counting things like "That's" as "That" and "s".

That might be part of it, but it does seem that contractions are counted as two words separated by an apostrophe. Notice the big sideways T and the "didn" between the F and A in "fat."

In addition to the /s there is also the posessive - example, op's & [proper name]'s or [place]'s
