Upper intermediate: the 598 words the HSK 2.0 syllabus adds at level 4 (1,200 words in total by the end of level 4). The official syllabus counts 600 entries for this level; after merging entries that repeat a word, 598 distinct new words remain.

HSK 2.0 is the older six-level exam. Many test centres still run it on regular test dates, but the 2026 HSK 3.0 syllabus regroups the words: of these 598, 3 in HSK 1, 6 in HSK 2, 54 in HSK 3, 464 in HSK 4, 56 in HSK 5, 6 in HSK 6, 2 in HSK 7–9, and the rest are not in the 2026 lists.

How to use this deck

  1. Look at the front and say the answer out loud before you flip.
  2. Flip, check, and mark Knew it or Didn’t know. Be strict: a slow or half-right answer is a miss.
  3. At the end of the set, review only the cards you missed until none are left.
  4. Come back tomorrow and do the set again before starting a new one. Short daily sessions beat long ones.
