As a Haskell noob, I had the same problem a few times. Essentially: there's a function to do what you want to do, but good look finding it!

Someone thought "words" was the perfect name, and it wasn't me!

https://hoogle.haskell.org/ can help you find the function that you're looking for.

As for "words"... yes, possibly not the best name. But also so common that everyone that has ever written any Haskell code knows it. Such as Java's System.out.println

not quite as helpful, but this reminded me of: https://wordly.org/wordle-games/haskle "a wordle clone for learning haskell functions"
Yeah this language probably has a lot of Stackoverflow questions. This is basically like tasking someone’s personal dot file and trying to reason about it
