Why this test matters
Portuguese is one of the most demanded languages in BPO and customer-support hiring (Brazil and Portugal both export significant offshore typing labor). Native Portuguese typists average 40–55 WPM. The accented characters (á, ã, ç, é, ê, í, ó, ô, ú) are well-supported on the standard ABNT2 (Brazil) and Portuguese ISO layouts. If you're prepping for a Brazilian BPO assessment, expect a 1- or 3-minute test with 95%+ accuracy threshold; the 3-minute mode below is the closest free analog.
