Short words let new typists build confidence and a steady rhythm. If you are still learning the keys, start with the home row lessons and come back here to check your speed.
This easy typing test uses short, common words (four letters or fewer) with no capitals or punctuation, so you can focus on finger placement and rhythm.
Around 40 wpm is average. 60 wpm or more is good for most jobs, and 80 wpm or more is fast. Keep accuracy above 95%.
