Hindi Typing Test (हिंदी टाइपिंग टेस्ट)

This Hindi typing test gives you real Devanagari passages and scores them the way Hindi typing exams do: a base character together with its matras counts as one unit, and text is Unicode-normalised so your keyboard's way of composing क + ि matches the passage's की. Type with any Hindi keyboard or IME you already use — InScript, Remington, Google Indic, phone Gboard — and get live WPM, accuracy and per-character error marking.

Net WPM = gross WPM minus uncorrected errors per minute — exams score net, so an error you fixed with backspace costs time, but an error you left costs a full word.

How to use this tool

  1. Switch to your Hindi keyboard

    Use whatever Devanagari input you normally type with — a desktop layout like InScript or Remington, or your phone's Hindi keyboard.

  2. Type the passage

    Matras, conjuncts and anusvara are compared correctly thanks to Unicode normalisation — घ and ध are not interchangeable here, and the display shows exactly which akshara went wrong.

  3. Check your net WPM

    Results show gross and net WPM plus accuracy; history and your best score stay on this device for daily practice.

Questions people ask

How does this test count Hindi characters?

By grapheme — a consonant plus its matra (and any conjunct pieces joined by halant) is one unit, matching how Hindi typing exams count depressions into words. की is one unit, क्ति is one unit. Both your typing and the passage are NFC-normalised first so different keyboards compare fairly.

Which Hindi keyboard should I use for this test?

Any that outputs Unicode Devanagari: InScript (the layout behind Mangal exam setups), Remington GAIL (the Krutidev layout), Google Indic transliteration, or a phone keyboard. The test checks what appears, not which keys you press.

What Hindi typing speed do exams require?

Typical benchmarks: SSC CHSL DEST 30 WPM in Hindi, RRB NTPC 25 WPM, CPCT 20 net WPM Hindi. Hindi WPM runs lower than English because Devanagari aksharas take more keystrokes each.

Can I practise Hindi typing on my phone?

Yes — the test accepts your phone's Hindi keyboard directly, including transliteration keyboards. For exam realism though, practise on the physical keyboard you will face in the exam hall.

Why does my typed matra sometimes show as wrong?

Usually it is a genuinely different character — ि typed after the wrong consonant, or an anusvara (ं) where the passage uses a full न्. The per-character highlighting shows the exact akshara so you can see which it was.
