Word size is typically the register size, and on 32-bits the word size is 32.

We know 8 bits are 1 byte so, 32 bits are 32/8= 4 byte word.

32 bits = (4*8) bits.
8 bits equals a byte.

Therefore 32 bits = 4 multiples of byte.
= 4bytes.

But word length is 16 bit or 2 bytes so it is 2 bytes I think.
