I complain all the time about this and it is never addressed. This is another typing speed test. 90 seconds is ridiculous to a slow typist. At least offer a timer free version. This site should be about learning, not a competition. It is so arrogant to not respond or acknowledge that a lot of people just don't type very well. They don't even tech typing in school anymore.I see someone else here has the same complaint.

It's cool for those who seek a challenge.

If you don't and just want to learn, go on and click the time-free option, which is always available.

The fact that you protest about the arrogance and competitiveness of this type of quizzes just because you want your 5 points so bad is hilariously hypocritical.

You can omit Amharic, and also replace the Croatian, Montenegrin etc. "languages" with Serbo-Croatian. In any case, it's definitely not easy for everyone to type all this in 90 seconds.

Jan 27, 2024
Sadly, once again, the scoring is more about it being a typing speed test rather then knowledge. Why not base it on a more average typist and those with age-impaired evesight? The fast typists will still bask in their score and perhaps aim to do it quicker, but for me it just causes frustration.

Took me 14 attempts. Had to check on Mali since my guesses were wrong: Tamazight, Arabic and French. I þought I had already guessed Bambara, so I didn't check again. I suppose I was wrong. Even ðen, ðe clock was a nightmare to beat. But finally!!!

G G. Excellent quiz
