Words, pinyin and parts of speech come from the HSK syllabus published in November 2025, with the corrections the publisher made in October 2026. The English meanings are ours, written as study aids, so they aren’t official translations. A script last checked the words, pinyin and parts of speech against the publisher’s list on November 1, 2026.

HSK 7–9 study tips

Tone colors

Tone colors help you notice tones. Turn them off to test yourself.

Rate every card

Rate each card Again, Learning or Know. “Study 20 words” picks words you haven’t marked Know, and your ratings stay saved in this browser. You can also import the .csv into Anki.

One part at a time

The list runs in pinyin order, not by how common a word is, so don’t feel you have to go from A to Z. Pick out what you meet in your own reading and listening first. Your ratings carry across all five parts.

Translate a little every day

Translation is its own section at this level. Take a short paragraph from a bilingual news site or a report published in both languages, put it into Chinese yourself, then compare yours with the published Chinese.

Review HSK 6

If a word from the level below feels shaky, go back to the HSK 6 list.

Check the exam dates

HSK 7–9 has its own test dates, separate from HSK 1 to 6. Our new HSK guide has the current calendar.
