Hi,
assuming that your words are in column A enter your numbers in column B,
then lets say that in column C you enter the words and want in column D to
get the number. In column D enter

=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$1:$A$5=C2),--$B$1:$B$5)

If you have more than 5 words just change the range from A5 and B5 to your
needs

If this was helpful please say yes. thanks
