Learn Spanish by typing its books
Typing forces you to look at every word. It is slow reading, the kind that sticks: spelling, punctuation and idiom, with the original text in front of you.

How it is done
Pick a book in the language
Four Spanish classics are ready, or your own PDF: a short story, an article, a manual.
Type a short part
About 80 words. If you hesitate, the clock stops; if you slip, the letter is marked and you carry on.
Review what slows you
The summary points out the letter pairs and the words that resist you in that language.
Why typing helps you learn Spanish
Skimming lets words slide by; typing does not. Every word passes through your fingers, and spelling settles without separate study.
The language’s punctuation and capitals get real practice, because you have to type them exactly as they are on the page.
Progress shows per book and per page: finishing “Don Quijote” by typing it is a concrete goal, not a vocabulary list.
Typed on a desktop or a tablet with a physical keyboard.
