HSK Vocab: Chinese Words 1-9

Long HSK - Chinese Vocabulary & Flashcards for the New HSK 3.0 (Levels 1-9)

Learn Chinese words for the HSK exam with pinyin, example sentences, and spaced repetition. Built for the 2021 HSK 3.0 standard, including the advanced HSK 7-9 band that most vocabulary apps still don't cover.

11,000+ words. Every single one has pinyin and an example sentence.

Complete HSK 3.0 Coverage

• HSK 1 vocabulary - 500 words
• HSK 2 vocabulary - 772 words
• HSK 3 vocabulary - 973 words
• HSK 4 vocabulary - 1,000 words
• HSK 5 vocabulary - 1,071 words
• HSK 6 vocabulary - 1,140 words
• HSK 7-9 vocabulary - 5,636 words

Most apps stop at the old HSK 2.0 (levels 1-6, about 5,000 words). If you're preparing for HSK 7-9, or you finished HSK 6 and want to keep going, this app has the words you need.

Smart Review with Spaced Repetition (SRS)

Cramming a word list and forgetting it a week later wastes study time. Spaced repetition calculates the exact day each word should come back.

• Hard words return sooner; known words return later
• Daily study plan based on your target level and exam date
• Focus on weak words by accuracy: below 60%, 30%, or 10%
• Review recent words, or words unseen for 7+ days
• Home screen widget to review before you forget

Learn in Stages, Not in Endless Lists

Each HSK level is split into stages of 30 words, so you always know where you are. A 3-round method locks each stage in, and words you get wrong come back automatically.

• Stage-by-stage progress you can actually see
• Automatic wrong-answer notes
• Reverse mode: character to meaning, meaning to character, or mixed
• Adjustable text size and zoom

Speed Mode

A 60-second timed quiz that turns drilling into a game. Pick your source: a whole HSK level, your bookmarks, or your weakest words.

Every Word Has Pinyin and an Example

Pinyin is shown with correct tone marks, and you can search in pinyin without typing Chinese - type "hao" and find 好, 好吃, 好看.

Every word has a natural example sentence translated into 18 languages, so you learn how it is actually used.

Choose Your Character Style

Chinese characters look different in print, on screen, and in textbooks:

• Hei (sans) - clearest on screen, the default
• Song (serif) - printed material and exam papers
• Kai (textbook) - Chinese school handwriting style, best for stroke shapes

Works Fully Offline

All words, example sentences, and fonts are bundled in the app. No download on first launch, no broken characters on the subway or a plane.
