thx for watching ily

You have to press Escape to get to the search bar.

[@OreoNT]

Very nice guide! Seeing guides from people that are extremely experienced is nice to see because sometimes people like you show tips that people like me could never think of

[@nonchalantgarage]

Thanks for this. I was using Keybr to learn touch typing and averaged 70 wpm over three weeks but adding real-world challenges to my typing tests with MT made me realize that I'm much slower and have much more room for improvement!

[@ahmadharb]

Great video, definitely will check out your other work as well!

[@ryan6731]

thanks for all these sick tips! I literally had no clue the last one even existed.

[@The_Dcoder]

Very useful guide, thanks for sharing. Got this video recommended on my front page :)

[@hubrisdog7358]

I can't believe there are these options. Thank you for this

[@Artuuuuri]

This is really helpful, thanks for your time to share that.

[@sunnyheheheh9401]

Thanks for the information, been using this website for so long but didn't dig deep enough

[@InfamousKoala]

Being a full time programmer and pro anti-grass toucher, this video seems helpful to me. Thank you

[@AvinashSingh-fd4nw]

many features i wasnt aware of. Thanks

[@AlleBalle54]

incredibly helpful, thanks

[@DebopriyoBasu]

Im using monkeytype since Sep’22. I didn’t know half of the stuff. Thanks!

[@bitonic589]

How are you verified with 417 subscribers??

[@brayannexon4613]

Ok thanks for this guide. I really thought I was better at typing but no with the word filter I found lots of words I cannot type well. lol

[@user-qz4cr3rj1j]

Honestly, One of the best video to come by when you are stagnating in typing

[@kenabi2804]

Yea, but how do you find the search bar. I have not seen one.

[@lilleklorin]

nice vidoeoeu

[@Octahedron2]

using chatgpt to generate our typing tests is the future

[@ahmadharb]

I definitely agree. I have used a combination of ChatGPT and Google Bard to create a practice set related to the medical field. Initially, I tried asking it for the top 100 words used in medical notes which didn’t work out very well, but then I asked it to create sample medical notes, then remove the capitals and punctuation, and remove filler words, such as “the and on or to…“ which worked out well.

[@Adiooos36]

Nooooo!

[@jashepoon]

"you probably haven't noticed, because you restart every test after you make a single mistake" 😳 funny and big brain guide, I like

[@OreoNT]

I only do that when bursting or trying to set a pb lol

[@JeppyITS]

Too good..thanks broo

[@coffeedude]

Super useful!!

[@8shaz8]

amazing

[@typingforall]

Good job

[@mohammadjihad569]

great video thx

[@Raphealt]

Nice video. 👍

[@thisusedtobemyrealname7876]

Wow did not know monkeytype was so customizable! I'm gonna do a few runs targeting my weaknesses and continue customizing from there. Awesome video, subbed!

[@benfrainuk]

Great video, I’d been using other tools for programming languages not realising they were included!

[@quentientyra]

Thanks for sharing. Definitely going to try the 'practice words' feature ASAP!

[@arunbalakrishnan8978]

Great video, is there any special settings to improve accuracy over speed? I want to turn of my typing speed at the end. Instead I only want to see my accuracy. Can we do that? Thank you

[@Octahedron2]

There is no way to turn off seeing your typing speed completely but if you make sure “live wpm” is off you won’t see it during the test. If you turn on “live acc” then you can see your accuracy during the test. If you want to practice accuracy there’s also the test difficulty settings which end the test if you make a mistake, and the stop on error setting forces you to correct mistakes. You can also turn on “min acc” which will fail the test if you go below the accuracy that you set it to.

[@deNik-pj8ot]

Спасибо, хорошее видео.

[@amtrent123]

This might be extrapolation of information, but the most commonly missed SFBS’s seems to be weighted for the left hand. Is that just showing that more people are right handed them left handed/ambidextrous?

[@Octahedron2]

My list of top 10 sfbs is actually just the most common ones as they appear in typical english so if you’re going off that it then that’s not representative of people’s actual ability to type them. Also, QWERTY has more of the most common characters put on the left hand (there is about a 55/45 split on left hand vs. right hand usage) so even if you were accounting for people’s accuracy, it wouldn’t be surprising to find more mistakes on the left hand just because there are more sfbs on the left hand.

[@AlohaBrent]

This is awesome, I had no idea that all those code languages were available. I’ve been using custom types with code not realizing it’s built in 🤦‍♂️

[@ddeadmeat]

my wps is 38 as i stopped using my pc for a while so my typing slowed down alot lol, thanks

[@danielalejandrotapia]

great video! so amini is now cmini? what is the world coming to?

[@Octahedron2]

idk man I don't follow the AKL lore closely enough but I'm pretty sure in 2028 it'll be zmini and I'm not sure what will happen after that

[@stronglytyped]

It’ll switch to the last letter of the Greek alphabet (omega) and work backwards to the first letter.

[@falahudinhalimshariski8358]

Thank you bro, very helpful

[@karmaphilip6727]

3 weeks back my friends were competing in typing speed and I was at 30-40wpm while trying hard. In just 3 weeks I reached 126 wpm MAX😅

[@its_mil_4816]

The only reason I'd heard of Julia is because my university professor mentioned it. It appears to be rather good for computational data science

[@kenabi2804]

I find that sometimes I will be typing along and then end up pausing for a second. I don't know why!

[@999samus7]

love how this is a video made for typists by a typist, hope people start asking for guides on how to touchtype so I can slap them in the face with this video.

[@XanderEatsCrayons]

😱

[@GreatWalker]

Julia is great

[@AK-nh1gu]

where can i find cmini bot

[@scyno4064]

thnak u my worm per minut is now big

[@asuraTB]

Hi the thing is that when i try to type i always miss the keys and it is very annoying and i cant type fast can u recommend any websites or methods to help me?

[@Octahedron2]

I would recommend just typing slower and really focusing on accuracy. If you want to learn touch typing and to be accurate at the same time then typingclub is my personal favorite. Ultimately it just comes down to practice and not rushing yourself, if you become more accurate then speed will naturally follow

[@shohruhmahmudaliev6989]

06:08 didnt even notice

[@seconddidedoshka3780]

i've heard of code julia

[@anshumanmahapatra4402]

you have a Phd on how to improve typing. so much information in just 6 minutes . thankyou for helping.

[@kenabi2804]

I wish he would have shown how to get to settings and search. I do not see it.

[@Octahedron2]

Press escape and it will pull up the console window you can type into :)

[@kenabi2804]

I don't see a search or how to type anything. I was looking for a video that was a tutorial on how to use Monkey type

[@Octahedron2]

If you press escape while on monkeytype it pulls up the search window

[@kenabi2804]

Yes, I see it, but I cannot type anything as it just flashes and is gone when I let go of the escape button. Thanks anyway@@Octahedron2

[@user-rm5wb2jh7r]

Website name

[@Octahedron2]

Monkeytype

[@chromosundrift]

Shout out to the Julia language. Am I one of the 6?

[@Octahedron2]

now we wait for the other 5 👀

[@anupkeshri4270]

where is this seach bar

[@superdookybooty]

press esc

[@gregoryeletto3637]

Lmao I hate “develop”

[@user-xl6tv3ye5e]

Same. I recommend typing this the “o” with the middle and the “p” with the ring, breaking tradition
