About the Portuguese Typing Speed Test

Type real Portuguese passages using the Latin alphabet and nasal/tonal accent marks (ã, õ, ç, á) that shift a word's pronunciation and stress, and get your words-per-minute and accuracy the moment you finish.

Portuguese speakers in Brazil and Portugal use it to check their speed before a job typing test, and learners use it to get quicker at ã, õ, ç and accented vowels.

Guide

Using the Portuguese Typing Speed Test

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Choose Easy, Medium or Hard — Hard brings in R$ prices, times like 9h30 and a phone number — then set no limit or a 1, 2 or 5 minute timer.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Click directly on the Portuguese passage text and start typing, accents included — there's no separate text box.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Watch tildes, cedillas and acute accents; a wrong mark turns the letter red, and the timer starts with your first keystroke.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    When you finish or time runs out, check your Portuguese WPM and accuracy, then load a new passage or save a certificate labelled with the level and "Portuguese".

  • Real Portuguese passages with ã, õ, ç and accented vowels, typed exactly as an ABNT2, Portuguese or US-International layout produces them
  • Accented letters must match exactly, so ã and a count as different characters
  • Easy lines like O gato dorme no sofá o dia todo. come first; Hard adds a quotation, 9h30 and an invoice for R$ 1.059,32
  • 1, 2 or 5 minute timers keep loading new Portuguese text, handy before a typing test for a job in Brazil or Portugal
  • Pasting is blocked and each letter turns green or red as you type, so a plain c for ç, or a missing tilde on ã, is flagged at once

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about the Portuguese Typing Speed Test.

What does the Portuguese Typing Speed Test do?

It shows you a random Portuguese passage — from everyday sentences to Hard ones with R$ prices and times — and reports your words per minute and accuracy when you finish or the timer you chose runs out.

Do I need to type the nasal accents correctly?

Yes — accents like ã, õ, ç and á are part of the passage and count toward accuracy, the same way any other character would.

What do the tilde marks like ã and õ actually do?

They mark nasal vowel sounds and shift where the stress falls in a word — a distinct feature of Portuguese spelling that the passages here include alongside plain letters.

Is the text Brazilian or European Portuguese?

The passages follow Brazilian usage — xícara, café da manhã, você and R$ prices — but the spelling is close enough that typists from Portugal can use them just as well.

How do I type ã, õ and ç?

On a Brazilian ABNT2 or Portuguese keyboard, ç has its own key and ~ followed by a gives ã. On US-International, ~ then a gives ã, ~ then o gives õ and ' then c gives ç.

How is my WPM calculated?

Every five characters you type count as one word, and your speed is those words per minute. Mistakes don't lower the WPM itself — they show up in your accuracy, which compares each character you typed with the passage.

Can I get a certificate of my result?

Yes. When the test ends, add your name if you like and click Download certificate to save your WPM and accuracy as a PNG image.
