Why the Space bar is big: We have been seeing the keyboard ever since we started using a PC or laptop. The keyboard comes fixed with the laptop, while it has to be attached separately to the computer. Typing cannot be done if there is no keyboard. If we are talking about the keyboard, then let's also discuss something about its keys. Have you ever noticed that the size of almost all the keys present on it remains the same, but its space bar remains the largest? But why does this happen, let us know…
The space bar on the keyboard is usually larger than the rest of the keys because it is used more often than the rest of the keys.
In addition, it is often used as a way to separate words in written text, which is why it is placed in a convenient place for the thumb.
What if the space bar is not big enough?
The reason the space bar is so large is because it is designed to be pressed with both hands. If you use the standard typing configuration, with your left index finger on the 'F' key and your right finger on the 'J' key, both your thumbs will press the space bar.
Apart from this, the space bar is the most common character. This is because space is given between each word to understand any text. If there is no space then it is difficult to understand any word.
In simple language, the space bar is so wide that it can be easily pressed with the thumbs of both hands, and due to this, the typing speed is also fine. If the space bar is not kept big, then you may have to raise one hand to press it, and when this happens, your typing speed will decrease. That's why the space bar is kept big and in the middle.
