What HSK 4 adds — 7 focus areas

HSK 4 is less about brand-new structures and more about fluency with formal connectors and complements at reading speed.

  1. Formal linkers不仅…而且…、既然…就…、无论…都… not only… but also; since…; no matter…
  2. 是…的 emphasis我是坐飞机来的。 It was by plane that I came.
  3. Potential complements听得懂 / 听不懂 able / unable to understand by listening.
  4. Separable verbs见面 → 见过一次面 verb-object words that split apart.
  1. First 成语 (idioms)马马虎虎、乱七八糟 so-so; a complete mess.
  2. Reading pace — the reading section allows roughly 1 minute per question, so skimming for structure matters as much as vocabulary.
  3. Writing tasks — rearrange words into sentences (10) and write a sentence about a picture using a given word (5).
Want the full explanation of any of these? Each one has its own page in the Chinese Grammar Library — structure formula, six example sentences with audio, the mistakes English speakers make, and a five-question drill.

HSK 4 study plan

Plan on eight to nine months from HSK 3. The 600 new words are the main load — pace them and the grammar follows.

Months 1–3 — Words 1–300

Months 4–6 — Words 301–600 & formal style

  • Finish the list; start noticing the formal linkers (不仅…而且…) in everything you read.
  • Train listening on longer dialogues with the Listening Quiz — HSK 4 audio covers opinions, not just facts.
  • Write one picture-sentence a day (writing part 2 format).

Months 7–9 — Test mode

  • Take the mock test twice a week; drill every weak word it reports.
  • Do timed reading: 40 questions in 40 minutes is the real pace.
  • Scoring 80%+? Book the exam — HSK 4 is the certificate most universities and employers ask for.

HSK 4 — frequently asked questions

How many words do you need to know for HSK 4?

HSK 4 assumes 1,200 words in total: 600 from HSK 1–3 plus the 600 new words on this page. At this level you can discuss a broad range of everyday, study and work topics with some fluency.

What is the HSK 4 exam format and pass score?

HSK 4 has three sections: Listening (45 questions), Reading (40 questions) and Writing (15 questions) — 100 questions in about 100–105 minutes. Each section is worth 100 points for a 300-point maximum, and you pass with 180 points (60%). No pinyin is shown.

Is HSK 4 enough for university in China?

Often yes — HSK 4 (sometimes HSK 5 for competitive programs) is the level most Chinese universities ask from international students, and the one employers most commonly recognize. It maps roughly to CEFR B2.

What is in the HSK 4 writing section?

Two tasks: rearranging given words into a correct sentence (10 questions), and writing one sentence about a photo using a given word (5 questions). Short daily writing practice covers both formats.

How long does it take to prepare for HSK 4?

From HSK 3, most learners need eight to nine months at 45 minutes per day — commonly cited as 300–600 total hours from zero. The three-phase plan above paces the 600 new words at four to five a day.
