What Makes This Mode "Hard"?
Instead of common everyday words, this test uses longer, more complex vocabulary:
- Words with 8-15+ characters
- Professional and academic terms
- Words with tricky letter combinations
- Less frequently typed vocabulary
Examples include: accommodate, entrepreneur, Mediterranean, phenomenon, bureaucracy.
Why Practice With Difficult Words?
Practicing with harder vocabulary improves your overall typing ability:
- Build finger strength Complex words exercise less-common key combinations
- Improve accuracy Forces you to slow down and type precisely
- Reduce autocorrect dependence Learn to type difficult words correctly the first time
- Real-world readiness Professional writing uses sophisticated vocabulary
Expected Performance
Your WPM on hard mode will be significantly lower than normal mode. This is completely normal:
- Normal mode: 40-50 WPM � Hard mode: 25-35 WPM
- Normal mode: 60-70 WPM � Hard mode: 40-50 WPM
- Normal mode: 80+ WPM � Hard mode: 55-65 WPM
Expect a 30-40% speed reduction. If your accuracy stays above 90%, you're doing great.

- Break words into chunks Type "entre-pre-neur" mentally
- Learn common patterns Many hard words share prefixes/suffixes
- Don't panic on mistakes Complex words are supposed to be challenging
