Luckily people have done much research, and probabilistically split words in sentences. That science is apparently called morphology. There are some packages in Debian; ones I know include chasen, kakasi, and mecab. I looked at mecab today. mecab has different dictionaries, and there are 4 dictionaries in Debian lenny. One free one (mecab-juman) and non-free one (mecab-ipadic). This looks confusing for first-timers.
