New HSK 4 Vocabulary: Complete 1000-Word List with Examples

About HSK 3.0

What Is HSK 3.0?

HSK 3.0 is the revised HSK framework launching in 2026. It organizes the exam into three stages and nine levels instead of the older six-level model. Under this framework, Levels 1–3 are elementary, Levels 4–6 are intermediate, and Levels 7–9 are advanced.

In 2026, learners are still navigating a transition year. Legacy Levels 1–6 are still being offered, while HSK 7–9 is live as a separate advanced exam. Because of that overlap, many schools and programs still use older HSK level language even as the official framework shifts to HSK 3.0.

Core HSK 4 Grammar

By HSK 4, you are moving beyond isolated beginner patterns and into more flexible sentence building. The structures below show the kinds of grammar combinations that become much more common at the intermediate stage.

Pattern 1

把 (bǎ): foregrounding what happens to an object

Use 把 when you want to emphasize what you do with a specific object. It often appears when the action changes the object in some clear way.

Subject + 把 + Object + Verb + Result

请把表格发给我。

Qǐng bǎ biǎogé fā gěi wǒ.

Please send the form to me.

他把文件放在桌子上了。

Tā bǎ wénjiàn fàng zài zhuōzi shàng le.

He put the document on the table.

我已经把机票订好了。

Wǒ yǐjīng bǎ jīpiào dìng hǎo le.

I have already booked the plane ticket.

Pattern 2

被 (bèi): passive sentences

被 is used when the subject receives an action. At HSK 4, it becomes important for describing events, problems, and outcomes from the receiver’s perspective.

Subject + 被 + Agent + Verb + Result

我的手机被孩子拿走了。

Wǒ de shǒujī bèi háizi názǒu le.

My phone was taken away by the child.

这个计划被大家接受了。

Zhège jìhuà bèi dàjiā jiēshòu le.

This plan was accepted by everyone.

路被大雪堵住了。

Lù bèi dàxuě dǔzhù le.

The road was blocked by heavy snow.

Pattern 3

越来越 (yuè lái yuè): gradual change

越来越 is one of the most practical intermediate patterns. It expresses that a situation is developing more and more in a certain direction.

Subject + 越来越 + Adjective / Verb Phrase

现在网购越来越方便。

Xiànzài wǎnggòu yuè lái yuè fāngbiàn.

Online shopping is becoming more and more convenient now.

这座城市越来越热闹。

Zhè zuò chéngshì yuè lái yuè rènao.

This city is getting livelier and livelier.

她的中文越来越自然了。

Tā de Zhōngwén yuè lái yuè zìrán le.

Her Chinese is becoming more and more natural.

Pattern 4

虽然……但是……: concession and contrast

Although English speakers often shorten this to “although…,” Chinese frequently uses both parts together. This pattern is extremely common in spoken and written Chinese.

虽然 + Clause A，但是 + Clause B

虽然今天低温，但是他还是外出跑步了。

Suīrán jīntiān dīwēn, dànshì tā háishi wàichū pǎobù le.

Although it was cold today, he still went out for a run.

虽然工作很忙，但是他每天都按时吃晚餐。

Suīrán gōngzuò hěn máng, dànshì tā měitiān dōu ànshí chī wǎncān.

Although work is busy, he still eats dinner on time every day.

虽然这个任务不容易，但是我们可以一起商量。

Suīrán zhège rènwu bù róngyì, dànshì wǒmen kěyǐ yìqǐ shāngliang.

Although this task is not easy, we can discuss it together.

Pattern 5

一边……一边……: doing two things at once

This pattern describes two simultaneous actions. It is especially useful for more natural everyday narration and conversation.

一边 + Verb Phrase，一边 + Verb Phrase

我喜欢一边散步，一边听音乐。

Wǒ xǐhuan yìbiān sànbù, yìbiān tīng yīnyuè.

I like taking a walk while listening to music.

他一边查看地图，一边问路。

Tā yìbiān chákàn dìtú, yìbiān wèn lù.

He checked the map while asking for directions.

孩子们一边吃饼干，一边看电视剧。

Háizimen yìbiān chī bǐnggān, yìbiān kàn diànshìjù.

The children watched a TV drama while eating crackers.

Pattern 6

除了……以外……: excluding or adding

除了……以外…… can mean “except for…” or “besides…,” depending on the full sentence. At HSK 4, learners should start recognizing both uses comfortably.

除了 + X + 以外， …

除了中文，他还会翻译英文材料。

Chúle Zhōngwén, tā hái huì fānyì Yīngwén cáiliào.

Besides Chinese, he can also translate English materials.

除了网页，我们也可以通过短信通知大家。

Chúle wǎngyè, wǒmen yě kěyǐ tōngguò duǎnxìn tōngzhī dàjiā.

Besides the webpage, we can also notify everyone by text message.

除了周末，他每天都很忙。

Chúle zhōumò, tā měitiān dōu hěn máng.

Except for weekends, he is busy every day.

Example Sentences by Topic

At HSK 4, vocabulary needs to move into connected thought. These example sentences are grouped by topic so you can see how intermediate words begin to function in practical, real-world contexts.

Vocabulary by Category

The 1,000 HSK 4 words grouped into useful thematic clusters. Studying by category makes it easier to build topic-based speaking and writing ability instead of memorizing vocabulary as one long abstract list.

Study Tips & Resources

Tone Color System

Pinyin on this page is color-coded by tone: 1st tone (red), 2nd tone (orange), 3rd tone (green), 4th tone (blue), and neutral tone (gray). That makes it easier to see tonal patterns while you review a large intermediate-level word set.

Study the New Layer, Not All 2,000 at Once

This page isolates the 1,000 new words introduced at HSK 4. If you already know HSK 1–3 well, that is the right unit to focus on. Review the new layer until it feels familiar, then return to cumulative mixed review.

Use Spaced Repetition

Export the CSV, build your own Anki deck, or copy difficult words into your existing review system. At HSK 4, volume matters, so consistent review is usually more important than long but irregular study sessions.

Move Beyond Isolated Words

HSK 4 is where vocabulary starts working in paragraphs, opinions, explanations, and short real-world texts. Do not stop at word-level recognition. Use the example sentences on this page, then make a few of your own for each study session.

What HSK 4 Means

HSK 4 sits at the start of the intermediate stage and corresponds roughly to CEFR B1. In CLI’s HSK levels guide, the full level includes 2,000 cumulative words. For a broader explanation, see CLI’s HSK levels guide and our guide to the revised HSK.
