With most predetermined texts or free text in English, Norwegian or German I get around 70-80 wpm. With the Romanian text I only got 47 wpm (100% accuracy), but I think the average word length must be higher there, too, so it's not a fair comparison. Actually I was surprised how easy it is to type a text in a language you don't know if you can read the text while typing.
Originally posted by Nordlys29 words per minute. 8% accuracy though. 😕 Apparently I typed two words as one which deemed the entirety of the following text to be incorrect.

Originally posted by lauseyThe first time I tried, I forgot a comma, couldn't correct it (once you have typed a space, you can't correct the word anymore - that's not the case on the other site), typed the comma after the space, and then all following words were marked as incorrect because of the extra space (much like jimslyp's problem in the other test, only the other way round), so I decided to start all over again and got 73 wpm with 100% accuracy. I make a lot of mistakes, but usually notice them while typing and correct them.
The Java applet on that site did not work for me for some reason.
I did have a go on www.typingtest.com and got 68 WPM with 94% accuracy. Although this was text that was provided by the site and a laptop keyboard (I am better on a standard PC keyboard). 😕
