Free online typing test for speed, accuracy and keyboard familiarity
Monkey Typing Test by MonkeyTyping is a free typing speed test that measures your WPM, raw WPM, accuracy and consistency in real time. Choose a 15, 30 or 60 second test, practise with quotes, scripts and numbers in 50 languages, and play typing games, all with no signup. Every result is calculated in your browser, so a run starts instantly and nothing has to be downloaded.
Use the test to find out where you stand, then move into the practice tools below to build raw speed, accuracy and keyboard familiarity. Repeat runs in the same mode make small improvements easy to spot.
WPM means words per minute. One word is counted as five keystrokes, so a test averages out your typing over a fixed amount of text rather than counting words literally. A free typing test for WPM gives you that number instantly, together with raw WPM, accuracy and consistency.
Accuracy matters as much as speed. Typing quickly with mistakes still leaves you slower in real use, because you have to go back and fix errors. The result panel shows accuracy and consistency next to WPM so you can tell whether a fast run was also a clean one.
A timed typing test works by showing you a passage and starting a countdown. You type as much as you can before the time runs out, and the app works out your speed from the characters you entered. Because every test uses the same rules, two runs in the same mode are directly comparable.
Repeated practice is what actually raises your typing performance. Each run shows which mode you are strongest in, and the practice tools below let you target the weak parts: listening and sentences, vocabulary, keyboard patterns, or a full game session.
Whether you are looking for a typing speed test to benchmark yourself, a WPM test to check on a month of progress, or a free word per minute typing test before a job application, the same measurement applies.
The typing tool above has four content sources and two extra toggles. Every option is available in the same config bar.
Choose 15, 30 or 60 seconds and type as much as you can in that window. The timer runs from your first keystroke, so no time is lost reading the prompt.The 60 second option works as a standard 1 minute typing test.
Type a set number of words instead of racing the clock. Useful for a steady warm-up, because the word count tells you when to stop.
Practise typing real passages. Pick a length that matches your session: short quotes for a quick warm-up, large quotes for a longer run.
Two extra toggles sit alongside the modes rather than being modes of their own. Numbers Mode swaps the displayed text for numbers, and Punctuation adds symbols. Both apply to Time and Words mode only, not to quotes.
A fourth content source, opened from the search button in the config bar. It loads a longer script instead of a random line, so you can practise the same passage repeatedly and compare attempts honestly.
The language selector in the config bar lists 50 languages, including English, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. The count is read from the application configuration, so this page stays correct if a language is added or removed.
Word banks are loaded per language on demand, so switching language does not block the test. Words are drawn from the selected language rather than translated on the fly.
44 of the 50 languages also ship quote and script content for Quote and Script mode. The remaining six (Marathi, Telugu, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam and Ukrainian) have full word banks, so they remain selectable for the standard test.
Typing the same short passage over and over stops being useful fairly quickly. MonkeyTyping provides different scripts and quotes for typing practice, and the amount of material depends on the language you select.
A large language such as English carries roughly 5,000 scripts, Spanish about 2,000, and languages including Arabic and Bengali about 1,000 each. Many of the remaining languages ship around 300. Availability varies by language rather than being identical across the board.
Because the material differs between runs, you get a different passage each time. That is the point: varied content exercises more of the keyboard and more of your vocabulary, instead of memorising one short sample.
The leaderboard ranks your best run per player, so the board reflects a real best rather than a lucky single attempt. The All Time, Weekly and Daily tabs are three views over the same results, not three separate rankings.
Your single best run from your full history, across every mode. This is the number that never falls.
Points earned inside the current window rather than your lifetime best. Daily resets at local midnight and the week starts on Monday, so they show whether you are actually improving.
Narrow the board to a single test: 15 sec, 30 sec, 60 sec, 12 words, 25 words or 50 words. Punctuation and number variants are counted under their base time or word length.
Words slide down the screen and you have to type them before they cross the hit line near the bottom. Miss one and it cracks and bursts, so the pressure is real but the failure is clear. The game contains 1,000 levels built from 23 topics.
Seven solo typing games, each with 500 levels of its own. They train different things, and progress is tracked per game so you can see which one you have actually improved at.
Trace words out of a letter grid in any orthogonal direction. Three minutes on the clock, diagonals do not count, and you can undo a drag that went wrong.
Unscramble the word from its meaning. Trains recall as well as typing.
Words fall and you clear them before they land.
Pop falling words before they drift away.
Jump over and land on the correct word as you type.
Boss encounters where accurate typing is what wins.
Fill the grid by typing the missing digits, 500 puzzles.
The practice area is where the structured work happens. Both systems use text-to-speech, so you are typing from what you hear rather than from what you can already read.
10,000 sentences across 25 parent categories and 238 child categories, with up to 6 sets per child category and 10 sentences per set. Choose a category and a set, listen to each sentence, then type what you heard. There is no countdown: you can skip a sentence, though it counts as an error. Each correct sentence is worth 10 points, and the app speaks the next sentence automatically.
6,597 words across 109 parent and child categories, with up to 17 sets per category and 10 words per set. Each word runs in two phases: first you hear the word and type it, then a sentence that uses the word is repeated until you have typed it.
Fifty short lessons across five modules. They start on the home row and finish with mixed characters, digits and symbols.
Home Row Fundamentals, Top Row, Bottom Row, Numbers, Symbols and Accuracy, and Typing Practice. Ten lessons in each module.
Lessons drill repeated patterns such as fjfjfjf and usususu so a finger learns one key and its neighbours as a pair. Progress and best WPM are tracked per lesson.
It is a free typing test that measures your typing speed. You choose a mode, type the text you are shown, and the app calculates your speed in words per minute along with raw WPM, accuracy and consistency. The test runs entirely in your browser, so it starts as soon as you press a key.
Yes. The typing test needs no account and no payment. Creating a name is optional and only used to label your saved results and leaderboard entries.
One word counts as five characters, so WPM is the number of correct characters you typed divided by five, then divided by the number of minutes. Raw WPM counts every character including mistakes, which is why the two numbers differ once you start missing keys.
Yes. Time mode runs for 15, 30 or 60 seconds and Words mode for 12, 25, 50 or 100 words, plus a custom count from 1 to 1000. Quote mode and Script mode are also available for longer passages.
50 languages are selectable in the typing tool, including English, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. 44 of them also have quote and script content for Quote and Script mode.
Yes. Quote mode has Short, Medium and Large lengths, so you can pick a passage that suits the time you have.
Yes. Numbers Mode is a toggle next to the mode buttons and replaces the displayed text with numbers, including whole numbers, decimals, hex, binary and times. It works in Time and Words mode.
Yes. There are seven solo typing games with 500 levels each, plus Keyboard Warrior which has 1,000 levels and multiplayer for two or four players. All of them are listed on the games page.
A typing game where words slide down the screen and you have to type them before they cross the hit line. A level ends if you miss 10 letters or fall below the accuracy thresholds, and it has both solo and multiplayer modes for two or four players.
Yes. Fifty lessons across five modules cover the home row, the top and bottom rows, digits and symbols, and mixed typing practice.
Yes. The sentence practice system has 10,000 sentences grouped into parent and child categories with sets of ten. You listen to each sentence with text-to-speech and type what you hear.
Yes. The vocabulary system has 6,597 words. You hear a word and type it, then type a sentence that uses that word against a 30 second timer, and the sentence is revealed if you run out of time.
