The first pipe is an expensive (and error prone) way to mimic the behaviour of ls *; not sure what it should be good for.
wc -l yields the count of lines, not words.
Please note that options to any command are introduced by a - (minus sign), NOT a – (Unicode U+2014, "EM DASH") character which leads to a syntax error.

DESCRIPTION
All of the routines described examine Tcl_UniChars and return a boolean value. A non-zero return value means that the character does belong
to the character class associated with the called routine. The rest of this document just describes the character classes associated with
the various routines.
Note: A Tcl_UniChar is a Unicode character represented as an unsigned, fixed-size quantity.
CHARACTER CLASSES
Tcl_UniCharIsAlnum tests if the character is an alphanumeric Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsAlpha tests if the character is an alphabetic Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsControl tests if the character is a Unicode control character.
Tcl_UniCharIsDigit tests if the character is a numeric Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsGraph tests if the character is any Unicode print character except space.
Tcl_UniCharIsLower tests if the character is a lowercase Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsPrint tests if the character is a Unicode print character.
Tcl_UniCharIsPunct tests if the character is a Unicode punctuation character.
Tcl_UniCharIsSpace tests if the character is a whitespace Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsUpper tests if the character is an uppercase Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsWordChar tests if the character is alphanumeric or a connector punctuation mark.
