Actually, no, it doesn't. "S T R A W B E R R Y" can be tokenized e.g. as
"[start]", "S", " ", "T", " ", "R"
But more common it may look something like "[start]S ", "T R", " A W", " B ", "E R R", " Y[end]" or whatnot.
And anyway, anyone who's used a (non-tiny) model in the past 2 years or so knows that these sorts of issues aren't really a "thing" anymore. But the key point is that this is a test on an ability to count something that the LLM can't actually see (letters).
