How fast do you type Tibetan? Type a real Tibetan passage for one, two or three minutes. You get syllables per minute, accuracy and your mistakes.
Your result
Greetings, short stories and passages from the Tibetan Type Lab course, from easy words to long stacks.
Tibetan has no spaces between words, so speed is counted in syllables: every correct tsheg ་ or shad ། counts one.
Every letter or stack typed wrong counts as a mistake, even if you fix it. In the course a lesson is passed at 95% accuracy.
Speed comes from typing without looking. The free course detects your keyboard, lights up the next key and shows every stack key by key.
Yes, the test checks real Tibetan letters. Mac has one built in; Windows has Tibetan (PRC); Keyman and Monlam work too. See keyboard setup. Without one, you can still type Tibetan with the online keyboard.
Any keyboard that types Tibetan Unicode: Mac Tibetan Wylie, Windows Tibetan (PRC), Keyman EWTS, Monlam, and Tibetan keyboards on phones.
Yes, with no account and no sign up.
Start with accuracy. Once you type without looking at the keys, speed grows by itself. Take the test again every week and compare.
