The Most Common Words

the · and · to · of · a

Roughly a quarter of everything you type is just a few dozen words — the, and, to, of, a, in, that, it. Make those automatic and your everyday typing speed jumps.

Why frequency wins

Practicing random letter drills spreads your effort evenly across keys you rarely use. Practicing the most common words concentrates it where it actually pays off.

This is the core idea behind keyspraut: you drill the words and letter combinations that appear most in real English, not filler.

Tip: Speed on the top 100 words matters more than speed on rare ones.
