Originally posted by Nordlys My top row reads "å,.pyfgcrl'¨". That's a bit more challenging than the QWERTY keyboard. But I can type "The idea that nineteen studious dadaists assisted Einstein is asinine" just using the middle row!
It is true that the qwerty keyboard was designed to slow typing down, by putting commonly used letters such as a and e where most people have their weakest fingers. It therefore makes little sense that now when almost everyone uses a word processor, we still use a keyboard designed to slow us.

Wow... that's pretty good.... ok, let me rephrase that: What is the longest word you can spell using only the left hand as normally used on a QWERTY keyboard. And by "normally used" I mean as is taught in any typing class. You know what I mean dangit.

Left Hand: sweaterdresses
Right Hand (because I know it will be asked 🙂 ) : hypolimnion

I guess that will work... I've always heard it as "stewardesses" but "sweaterdresses" is longer. I don't think I've ever heard that word before, tho 🙂
