Pick Remington Gail or Inscript above and type on your normal laptop keyboard. The tool turns your keys into Hindi Unicode (Mangal style), exactly like the exam software. No font or software is needed.
Both are allowed in SSC, RRB and CPCT. Remington Gail is the old typewriter layout and suits people who learnt Krutidev. Inscript is easier to learn from zero because letters sit in a logical order. Practise only the one you will select in the exam.
30 words per minute in Hindi, in a 10 minute test. That is 9,000 key depressions per hour. Errors up to 7% are allowed for UR and 10% for other categories, as per recent notices.
25 words per minute in Hindi in a 10 minute test. Backspace is usually turned off, so the RRB mode here turns it off too.
CPCT in Madhya Pradesh has a 15 minute Hindi typing test in Unicode with Remington Gail or Inscript. Many posts need about 20 WPM in Hindi. Check the speed for your post in the notice.
Mangal is a Unicode font. Remington Gail and Inscript are keyboard layouts. In the exam you type with one of these layouts and the text appears in Mangal.
The key positions are the same. Krutidev is an old non-Unicode font, while Remington Gail gives Unicode text. If you can type in Krutidev, you can type Remington Gail.
Press f before the letter. For कि type f then d. The tool places ि after the letter, as the exam software does.
Type the letter first, then Z. For कार्य type d k ; Z.
Every 5 characters count as one word. Net speed takes away your mistakes from the words typed, then divides by the minutes.
Yes. Choose My keyboard and use Gboard or your phone Hindi keyboard. Remington Gail and Inscript need a laptop or desktop keyboard.
Pehle Inscript ya Remington Gail chuniye, keyboard chart dekhkar home row ke akshar yaad kijiye, aur roz 15 minute ka test dijiye. 2 se 3 mahine mein 30 WPM aa jata hai.
