Typeracer is a terminal typing game. Race to see the fastest time you can get. Typeracer gives you a random passage and you type it out.
As you type the software tells you where you’re making errors and give you a set of words per minute.
Typeracer natively supports reading almost all languages. If the language does not blend wide and thin character charsets it should work as expected without a hitch.
This is free and open source software.
