About this deck

Practice 999 words. Each level holds the words that are new at that level of the 2025 HSK exam syllabus, in the same order as its word-list page. Levels 7–9 are one list, because they are one exam.

Readings and meanings come from this site's dictionary, or from CC-CEDICT where ours has no entry (marked †). A word the syllabus lists without a meaning we can show is left out.

Looking for graded vocabulary instead? The HSK flashcards run levels 1 to 6, and the HSK word lists have the full 5,000.
