Abstract: Positional analysis of any language is useful in spellchecker, Natural Language Interfaces, OCR and language related technology development etc .Though considerable work has been done in the area for English and related languages, the Indian Language scenario is still far behind.. This paper focuses on the role of First position errors in Non-word Error Distribution of Punjabi Typed Text. This paper is based on the analysis done on 20000 misspelled words generated by typists.
