Source: SC-TOP’s official TOCFL word list (華語八千詞表), July 2023 file; the September 2024 re-issue on the official download page has the same entries. Characters, pinyin, level and part of speech are from the official list (where it gives several forms, they are separated by a slash). Zhuyin and English are from the Literate Chinese dictionary: matched by characters and reading for 3,501 entries, and by characters alone for 14 whose Taiwan reading our dictionary lacks; 16 have no zhuyin shown.

How many words are in TOCFL Band B?
3,515 entries on the official 2023 list, 4,741 counting everything below. Here is how they split by level. The counts are entries, not distinct words: 124 of them repeat a word from a lower band with another part of speech and 77 repeat a word within the band.
| Level | Chinese name | CEFR (SC-TOP) | Entries | Cumulative |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Level 3 | 進階級 | B1 | 1,173 | 2,399 |
| Level 4 | 高階級 | B2 | 2,342 | 4,741 |

How to study the TOCFL Band B word list
Use the list as a checklist and let reading do the teaching. The test measures how fast you understand connected text, and a word you have read in context is one you recognize at speed. Our count: across the 178 free stories on this site leveled at about HSK 3–4, the median story has 96% of its words on the TOCFL lists through Level 4 (names excluded).
- Find your gaps. Set Meaning to Hidden and scroll your level; tap a cell to reveal it. Words you know instantly are done; the rest are your list.
- Seed 10 to 15 new words a day with flashcards. The Band B deck runs in your browser. In the Literate Chinese app the TOCFL lists from Novice 1 to Level 5 are built-in decks with FSRS scheduling, in traditional or simplified with pinyin or zhuyin.
- Meet every new word in a story within a few days. A word you have only seen on a card fades; a word you have read in three stories stays. Start with the passages below.
- Recheck monthly with meanings hidden, and move on to the next level when the current one is mostly known.
Read Band B words in context
Sample passages from free stories that use almost nothing beyond the Band B lists. Each opens in traditional characters, with tap-for-meaning and an optional pinyin line. The level match is approximate: our stories are leveled on the HSK 3.0 scale.

TOCFL Band B vocabulary FAQ
How many words are in TOCFL Band B?
The official 2023 list has 3,515 entries for Levels 3 and 4: 1,173 (Level 3) + 2,342 (Level 4). Counting every level below, that is 4,741 entries through Level 4. The counts are entries, not distinct words: 124 of them repeat a word from a lower band with another part of speech and 77 repeat a word within the band.
Is TOCFL Level 3 enough for a Taiwan scholarship?
Level 3 is the threshold Taiwan’s MOE scholarship sets for Chinese-taught degree programs, and Level 4 makes an application stronger. Check the current rules for your program, since they can change.
Is there a simplified-character version of the Band B list?
Yes. Every entry shows simplified characters too (use the Script menu for traditional, simplified or both), and the CSV has both columns. Overseas test centers let you sit the TOCFL in simplified characters; centers in Taiwan use traditional only.
Can I download the TOCFL Band B list as a CSV or PDF?
Yes. Download CSV gives a UTF-8 file with traditional, simplified, pinyin, level, part of speech, zhuyin and English that opens in Excel, Google Sheets and Anki. Print / PDF prints the table as shown, so hiding the meanings first gives you a self-test sheet.
Where does this word list come from?
From SC-TOP’s official TOCFL word list (華語八千詞表), the July 2023 file; the current download, dated September 2024, has the same entries. Characters, pinyin and part of speech are from the official list. Zhuyin and English are from the Literate Chinese dictionary: matched by characters and reading for 3,501 entries, and by characters alone for 14 whose Taiwan reading our dictionary lacks.
