HSK 4 vocabulary list: the official HSK4 word list

Avatar
Alan Hou

HSK 4 is a 105 minute test. It includes the same parts as HSK level 3, namely listening, reading and writing. It assesses the candidate's ability to communicate on a wide range of topics and to communicate freely with locals. The purpose of this language test is to prove that you have mastered Chinese. HSK Level 4 will assess your ability to understand and express Chinese fluently. Students should be able to discuss various topics and should have fluent conversations with native speakers. If you are not familiar with the classic HSK test structure, you can prepare for this step with us.
