seems about as good as you'd expect without "natural intelligence"

AppleScript's word breaking ability for *natural* language ?
It is useless for parsing with "natural language".
I don't expect natural language parsing ability to AppleScript.
Japanese word breaking?
<AppleScript>
set a to "富士山は日本で一番高い山です。"
set b to words of a
</AppleScript>
--> {"富士山", "は", "日本", "で",
"一番高", "い", "山", "です"}
It is crazy and useless *word* breaking. We thought word breaking
ablitity in AppleScript is a kind of joke.

Basically, don't use "word" elements to process anything other than
natural language text. In your case, you probably want text items
breaking on ":". Alternatively, you could set your word break
preference (System Preferences > International > Language > Word
break) to "English (United States, Computer)", which always treats
":" as a word break, but that would probably do horrible things to
your Japanese word breaking.
