Speaking time
Reading time is based on about 225 words per minute, the usual average for adults reading online. Speaking time uses roughly 130 words per minute, a comfortable presentation pace.
Publishers show reading time to set expectations, and presenters use speaking time to keep talks, videos and voiceovers within a slot.
