How do you sort paragraphs alphabetically?

A sort paragraphs tool reorders whole blocks of text — paragraphs separated by blank lines — into alphabetical order by their opening words. Snabbit splits your input on blank lines, trims each block, drops empty ones, then sorts and rejoins them with a blank line between. It runs in your browser, so your writing stays private.

How to use the Sort Paragraphs

  1. 1 Paste your paragraphs, separated by blank lines.
  2. 2 Each block is trimmed and empty blocks are ignored.
  3. 3 The paragraphs are sorted alphabetically and shown with a blank line between each.
  4. 4 Copy the reordered text.

What you can use it for

  • Alphabetizing glossary or FAQ entries.
  • Reordering bibliography or reference blocks.
  • Sorting multi-line list items by their first word.
  • Organising notes captured in any order.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a paragraph?
A paragraph is any block of text separated from the next by one or more blank lines. Single line breaks inside a block are kept, so wrapped sentences stay together as one paragraph.
What decides the order of two paragraphs?
Paragraphs are compared from their very first characters onward, so the opening words determine where each block lands in the alphabetical list.
Does it change the spacing between paragraphs?
Extra blank lines are normalised to a single blank line between paragraphs, giving a clean, evenly spaced result.
