forward-word docs mention that you can tweak how word boundaries are determined:

The word boundaries are normally determined by the buffer's syntax
table and character script (according to `char-script-table'), but
`find-word-boundary-function-table', such as set up by `subword-mode',
can change that.  If a Lisp program needs to move by words determined
strictly by the syntax table, it should use `forward-word-strictly'
instead.  See Info node `(elisp) Word Motion' for details.
