German Typing Test
German uses the umlauts ä, ö and ü plus the sharp s (ß), and capitalises every noun. This test trains those habits on a QWERTZ-style vocabulary.
What this tool gives you
Umlauts and ß
ä, ö, ü and ß appear in natural German words.
Capitalised nouns
German capitalises nouns, so the shift key gets regular use.
QWERTZ friendly
The words work on German QWERTZ and international layouts alike.
