Change your code to this .. It will work

C#

string txtfilesentence=string.Empty;
        string word=string.Empty;
        txtfilesentence = txtshowfile.Text.Trim();
        word = txtwordmatch.Text.Trim();
        if (txtfilesentence.Contains(word))
        {
            lblfound.Text = "word matched";
        }
        else
        {
            lblnotfound.Text = "word not matched";
        }
