How do the two input files look like?
Is there one word per line or many words per line?
It's much easier to work on full lines than on parts of the lines.

wc(1) User Commands wc(1)
NAME
wc - display a count of lines, words and characters in a file
SYNOPSIS
wc [-c | -m | -C] [-lw] [file...]
DESCRIPTION
The wc utility reads one or more input files and, by default, writes the number of newline characters, words and bytes contained in each
input file to the standard output.
The utility also writes a total count for all named files, if more than one input file is specified.
wc considers a word to be a non-zero-length string of characters delimited by white space (for example, SPACE, TAB). See iswspace(3C) or
isspace(3C).
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-c Counts bytes.
-C Same as -m.
-l Counts lines.
-m Counts characters.
-w Counts words delimited by white space characters or new line characters. Delimiting characters are Extended Unix Code (EUC) char-
acters from any code set defined by iswspace().
If no option is specified, the default is -lwc (counts lines, words, and bytes.)
OPERANDS
The following operand is supported:
file A path name of an input file. If no file operands are specified, the standard input will be used.
USAGE
See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of wc when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2**31 bytes).
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See environ(5) for descriptions of the following environment variables that affect the execution of wc: LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LC_MES-
SAGES, and NLSPATH.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
ATTRIBUTES
