How to Effectively Use the Test (Korleis bruke testen effektivt)
Getting started is easy. The interface is designed to be clean and intuitive, allowing you to jump right into your typing practice session.
Step 1: Customize Your Session (Tilpass økta di)
Before you begin, you can tailor the test to your preferences. Look for the option buttons located just above the main text area.
Test Mode (Testmodus): You can choose between Paragraph mode (Avsnittsmodus) to type a full block of text, simulating real-world writing, or Words mode (Ordsmodus) to practice with a sequence of common Nynorsk words.
Test Duration (Testvarigheit): Select your desired test length. You can choose a quick 30-second sprint, a standard 60-second test, or a longer 120-second session for endurance.
Step 2: Start the Test (Start testen)
Once you've selected your options, click the green "Start Test" button. The typing area below the sample text will immediately activate, and a cursor will indicate where you should begin.
Step 3: Begin Typing (Byrja å skrive)
As you type, the test provides you with live feedback:
Correct characters will be highlighted in green.
Incorrect characters will be highlighted in red, with a cross mark (x) above them.
If you make a mistake, you don't need to hit backspace. The test is designed to measure your forward-typing flow. Simply type the correct character to proceed. The timer in the top right will show your remaining time.
Step 4: View Your Results (Sjå resultata dine)
The test automatically ends when the timer runs out or if you successfully type the entire text provided. Your performance report will instantly appear below the test area. If you want to abandon a test mid-way, you can click the "Restart Test" button or select a new option to start a fresh session.
Understanding Your Performance Metrics (Forstå dine ytingsmålingar)
To improve your typing skills, it's important to understand the feedback you receive. Our test provides key metrics to help you track your progress.
OIM (WPM - Ord i minuttet): This is your net typing speed, the most important metric for job applications and overall proficiency. It is calculated by taking your total speed and subtracting a penalty for any errors made, giving you a true measure of your useful and productive typing speed. For standardization, one "word" is counted as five characters.
TIM (CPM - Teikn i minuttet): This is your gross typing speed. It measures the total number of characters you type per minute, including any mistakes. This metric provides a detailed look at your raw keystroke speed.
Accuracy (Nøyaktigheit): This is a simple percentage that shows how many characters you typed correctly versus the total number of characters you typed. Aiming for an accuracy of 95% or higher is a great goal.
Errors (Feil): This is a straightforward count of every incorrect key you pressed during the test.
Why We Created Separate Typing Tests for Bokmål vs. Nynorsk
We created two separate typing tests (Tastaturtester): one for Bokmål and one for this Nynorsk.
A single test will not suffice. Although they are mutually intelligible, the differences are significant enough to impact a user's natural typing flow, making a single test unfair and inaccurate.
Usage Statistics
Bokmål (Riksmål): This is the dominant written form, used by approximately 85-90% of the Norway population. It is the standard for most newspapers, books, and urban areas.
Nynorsk (Landsmål): This form is used by approximately 10-15% of the population, primarily in Western Norway and rural areas. It is an official language and is required in government communications and schools in those regions.
Key Differences Making Separate Tests Necessary:
A text written in one variant feels distinctly "foreign" to a primary user of the other, which would unfairly impact their typing speed.
Vocabulary: Many common words are different.
I:
jeg(Bokmål) vs.eg(Nynorsk)Not:
ikke(Bokmål) vs.ikkje(Nynorsk)Book:
boken(Bokmål) vs.boka(Nynorsk)
Grammar and Spelling: There are consistent differences in verb conjugations, noun endings, and the use of diphthongs.
A user accustomed to typing
ikkewould hesitate and make errors when required to typeikkje.
You can try our both Skrivehastighetstest for Norsk Bokmål and Nynorsk.
Minimum Speed Requirement in Norwegian Nynorsk
A specific minimum speed for Nynorsk is rarely advertised publicly.
Minimum Speed Required: For an administrative role requiring Nynorsk, an unstated but expected minimum speed would be around 45-50 WPM.
Requirement Example: A recent job advertisement for an
Administrasjonsmedarbeidar(Administrative Employee) with a municipality (kommune) in Vestland county listed the following requirement:"Det krevst god skriftleg framstillingsevne på nynorsk. Søkjarar må meistre digitale verktøy godt." Translation: "Good written presentation skills in Nynorsk are required. Applicants must master digital tools well."
In the practical skills test for such a role, a candidate would need to demonstrate their ability to produce official documents in Nynorsk efficiently, which implicitly requires a proficient typing speed.
