What this test measures
The typing speed test measures how fast and accurately you type — a blend of motor speed and language fluency. You type a passage as quickly as you can, and your words-per-minute is counted from correct characters only. Higher is better.
How to play
Start typing the passage shown. Correct characters advance; errors are marked. Your live WPM and accuracy update as you go.
How to improve
- Accuracy first — corrections cost more time than they save.
- Keep your eyes on the text, not the keyboard.
- Use all ten fingers and a steady rhythm rather than bursts.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good typing speed? The average is around 40 WPM; 60–80 WPM is fast, and pros exceed 100.
Is accuracy counted? Yes — WPM is computed from correct characters, so errors lower your score.
Does the passage change? Yes — passages vary so you are not just memorising one.
