Answer 1

Not sure how to get the complete sentense. but you can try this to get word by word if you split each word by spaces.

     
This is a test paragraph. I love cats. Please apply here
function splitToSpans(element){
    if($(element).children().length) 
        return;
    var arr = new Array();
    $($(element).text().split(' ')).each(function(){
    arr.push($(''+this+' '));
    });
    $(element).text('');
    $(arr).each(function(){$(element).append(this);});
}
