typing without copying?

If we're just typing freehand, how do we figure out WPM? Like I'm typing here but I want to figure out how fast I type freehand. Wanna just type for 5 minutes and see how many WPM i get, help?
Good way to do this is to open a word document and set the timer for 5 minutes. DO NOT USE THE MICROSOFT WORD COUNT, because words per minute actually measures 5 characters as one word. Once the timer is finished, take the character count and divide it by 5. This is your freehand words per minute.
Enjoy!

Main feature of any developed country depends on the percentage of literacy in that area. Therefore, to ensure bright future of any country, it is essential to concentrate on the education of its children. It is only through good education that we can achieve development of their personality to make them useful citizens.
