How many bits does a WORD contain in 32/64 bit OS respectively?

Question

Anyone has a definite answer?

Someone says that on 32 bit OS a WORD means 16bit,true?

Answer 1

One Word is the size of 16 bit DWord(double word) is double the size of word that is 32 bit when used in programing but...

The name Word in OS is the number shown nexto the OS so if it's saying 64 bit one word (adres for storege) is 64 bit's in this case

So it depends from what angle your looking at it from programing or the OS number
