Why this test matters

Italian typing speed lands close to English averages because Italian words tend to be similar in length and the accent layout is well-positioned for muscle memory. Native Italian typists average 40–55 WPM. There's no significant offshore typing-labor market for Italian (unlike Portuguese or Spanish), so most Italian typing tests target students, professionals, and government clerical applicants. The test below uses common Italian words with their accented vowels, so it measures your real Italian speed.

Frequently asked questions
