hi - I have a list of keywords. I am looking for a formula that counts the number of matched keywords in each row of the input data. I've tried Search but running into issues.

For e.g.,

If keyword list is "Apple", "Ball, "Cat", "Family"

Row 1: Apple Devil Egg Person
Row 2: Success Right Wrong Sorry
Row 3: Hi Ball Family Hello

My output should be
Row 1: 1
Row 2: 0
Row 3: 2

Thanks in advance!

is "Apple Devil Egg Person" in a single cell, say in A1, or 4 cells, say in A1:D1 ?
