Roger's code will be faster if you only want the lengths.
If you want the actual words too:
]r3=: <@-.&' '"1 r2
+------+--------+-----+-------+--------+------+
|shan't|shanghai|shank|shannon|shantung|shanty|
+------+--------+-----+-------+--------+------+
Or
]r3=: (' '&~: <@#"1 ]) r2
+------+--------+-----+-------+--------+------+
|shan't|shanghai|shank|shannon|shantung|shanty|
+------+--------+-----+-------+--------+------+
6=#&> r3
1 0 0 0 0 1
(] >@#~ 6=#&>) r3
shan't
shanty
