Why a custom HSK 1 deck works better

Most HSK 1 vocabulary is taught from a textbook unit or a course PDF, so a prebuilt Chinese Anki deck for HSK 1 often includes words your class never covered. Building cards from the exact list you were given keeps your practice matched to your test prep.

  • Start from the word list your teacher or textbook uses, so every card matches what you need.
  • Check tones on every card, since pinyin without tone marks can hide meaning differences.
  • Keep each card to one word or one short phrase so reviews stay quick.
  • Export to Anki on Plus if you want the same deck on your computer and phone.
Example HSK 1 Chinese flashcards
你好 (nǐ hǎo)Hello
谢谢 (xièxie)Thank you
学生 (xuésheng)Student
再见 (zàijiàn)Goodbye
老师 (lǎoshī)Teacher

Built from your own material

Upload a PDF, PPTX, DOCX, plain-text notes or a photo of a vocabulary page. Text is read from images, so handwritten-style scans of printed lists work too.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back at the intervals that help you remember them, so characters you keep missing appear more often than the ones you already know.

Export to Anki on Plus

The free plan lets you study in the browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, so your HSK 1 deck can live in Anki on any device you use.

How it works

Upload your HSK 1 notes

Add the PDF, slides or photo of the word list you are working through.

Review the generated cards

Check the pinyin, characters and meanings, then remove any cards you do not need.

Study on a daily schedule

Practice in the browser with spaced repetition, or export to Anki once you are on Plus.

Each card can carry the character, pinyin with tone marks and an English meaning on the back. Reviewing those three together, rather than only recognizing English, helps you read and write the words you will meet on the exam.

Spaced repetition handles the rest. Words you recall easily are shown less often, and the ones you keep getting wrong return within a short window.

Frequently asked questions

How many words are on the HSK 1 list?

The official HSK 1 vocabulary list is a short set of basic words, and the exact count depends on the syllabus revision you are using. Check your test provider's current list and generate cards from that document.

How should I study Chinese flashcards for HSK 1?

Review new cards once a day in short sessions, and say each word aloud with its tone. Write the character by hand a few times for words you keep missing.

Can I use my own HSK 1 notes or a photo of a page?

Yes. You can upload PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain-text notes or images, and photos of pages are read with text recognition.

Do I need to pay to put the deck in Anki?

Exporting to Anki is a Plus feature at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan includes three generations per month and studying in the browser.
