How to count which word occurrence is highest in objects of array

const wordCounts = {
  answerone: 0,
  answertwo: 0,
  answerthree: 0,
  answerfour: 0
};

data[0].checkone.forEach(item => {
  if (item === 'answerone') {
    wordCounts.answerone++;
  } else if (item === 'answertwo') {
    wordCounts.answertwo++;
  } else if (item === 'answerthree') {
    wordCounts.answerthree++;
  } else if (item === 'answerfour') {
    wordCounts.answerfour++;
  }
});

let highestWord = '';
let highestCount = 0;

for (const word in wordCounts) {
  if (wordCounts[word] > highestCount) {
    highestWord = word;
    highestCount = wordCounts[word];
  }
}

console.log('Highest word:', highestWord);
console.log('Highest count:', highestCount);
