can you type very fast?

I cannot type as fast as you, by far. But I think I do ok. I use six fingers. I only had typing lessons for one semester. Unfortunately I chose horses and riding instead of typing the first semester. It was not very easy to catch up after all the others had practised for several months at the basics. But i do ok.

Is that with or without errors? I can still type 60 wpm with no errors unless I'm sick then I'm lucky if I can type at all. lol Not many ppl can type as fast as you can thou so congrats on being able to do that.

you have now given me a motivation to check my speed. I shall type to the best of my capavty and am watching how many words I am going to type. Let me see. I shall transfer this to my ms word and check and I shall write this in my response. Thanks for this motibvating discussion topic. What is this? there are 58 words in the above paragraph and the time taken by me was 1 second. Have you meant second or one minute? There are of course 2 mistakes in what i have written. But pl. clarify if you havd meant second or minute.

Yes, I can type really well. I don't do well on typing tests, I get too nervous, but I can normally type 90-100wpm. If its a test I'll type more like 60wpm. I just seem to freeze up.

according to the game typershark my WPM is around 90 (although I don't think its accurate).

i am really slow at typing i have to use one finger on the keybord hehehe i neaver learn how to type that fast thanks for the question

i can, but i have to look at the keyboard and not at the screen, the ones who are really good are not looking at the screen when they type.

I type very fast. I took typing way back in the day at school and it was a bit of a pain, but like you said, it paid off. Of course, that was before the internet and when we had to type on memory typewriters if you can imagine that. Now I seem to make a lot of errors, so probably should slow down.

I had learned touch typing before when I was 19 years old and in the Navy. It was a requirement for my course of a communicator. I'd say it is a very useful skill to acquire, because until today I am typing quite well with all my 10 fingers. I probably can type around 40 words per minute, with only a very small amount of errors.

I can type 62 wpm last I checked which was a few years ago, so it's quite possible it's even faster now...the funny thing is I type faster than most people with one hand than they do with both hands!! I am actually typing this with one hand now while I lay on my bed and use my other hand to prop up my head, lol. I really should make a youtube video for it, it always freaks people out when i do it!!

typing is part of my curriculum in college but i am not fast in typing words specially complicated one. Sometimes i need to practice to speed up my typing skills. i am very thankful that i join mylot, my speed now is little bit faster that before.

Thats unbelievable that you can type 70 words per minute. I can type only about 35 to 40 words per minute. I have not learnt typing, I use false method to type, I just type. I need to improve the typing speed and method of typing.

I was the only guy in my typing class in HS. I could type about 75 wpm, I still keep with my typing skills, I haven't had a typing cop clock me in a while. But here is a typing test you can take, it's fun to try and beat your score. http://blackdog4kids.com/games/word/typing.html Enjoy

well never counted , but my typing speed is satisfactory

I never knew how to type. Soon after I finished high school, my father sent me to sewing classes. ;Later after I finished my University education, he bought a few short hand books and also encouraged me to learn typing. But I chose to spend my spare time reading story books, listening to music, chatting and whiling away the time with friends and old books. At the age of 49, after my son left for his hostel, he introduced me to the computer enabling me to send mails and more importantly chat withhim. I was so lost when he went away that i picked this up very slowly. After he finished his education, and got his job, we have now relocated to stay with him. Having left my home town, my fulltime freelance tuition centre, I was forced to find ways and means of occupation in this new place. Today, I am quite familiar with the comp, [in 2 years] and my typing speed is much better than what it was earlier. I myselfw would not have believed it that I would be like this today 2 years back. I have worked at it steadily and I am happy with my speed. It is not likely to be a tremendous one, because I still can't type without seeing--this is something I am unable to do.But it is much much better than what I would have thought myself capsaable of.I have a lot to thank Yahoo and my lot. com

not very fast , but good type anf you ?

As i am practicing typing from 11 years i can type fast. I typer by both hands. I also use voice recognition to type more fast. Anyway keyboard i can type about 95 word a minute.

I used to type much faster than I do now. I used to type 90 wpm, but now I think I do about 40wpm. Not typing for a long time dosn't help your typing speed!! But, I do use all ten fingers to type. It's like riding a bicycle, once you learn it, it comes right back to you!!

We have to take that too. i can type around like 50 a minute without looking and about 70 with looking.
