All levels · Practice
Not every learner fits neatly into one HSK level — plenty of people know some HSK 4 words but still hesitate on HSK 1 basics they skipped early on. This page is for practicing across the whole range at once, rather than being locked into a single level.
Instead of restricting the word pool to one HSK level, practice here can pull from HSK 1 through HSK 6 together, or from whichever levels you pick. It also supports several question styles beyond plain translation: multiple choice, listening-only, and an "infinite" mode that just keeps going for as long as you want, with your running score updating live.
The core mechanism behind all of it is spaced repetition (SRS): every word you answer gets a due date based on how well you knew it, so review sessions naturally spend more time on the words you keep missing and less on the ones you've clearly already learned. Nothing needs to be configured for this to work — it happens automatically as you practice.
Two concrete signs it's the right choice over a single-level quiz: you keep getting a specific word wrong across different sessions no matter the level it's from (mixed practice surfaces it faster than a level quiz that only shows it once every 300 words), or you're preparing for a real conversation rather than an exam — actual speech jumps between HSK 1 basics and higher-level vocabulary constantly, so training that mix directly is more realistic than isolating one band at a time.
Do I need to finish every HSK level before using this page?
No — words you haven't seen yet simply come up more often at first, like any word not yet learned in the spaced repetition system.
What's the difference between infinite mode and a regular quiz?
Infinite mode just keeps going for as long as you want instead of stopping after a fixed number of questions.
Do I need to practice every day for spaced repetition to work?
No, but consistency helps: a few days off simply pushes reviews back without breaking anything.
Does this page replace level-specific quizzes?
No: a level-specific quiz is better for validating one HSK level, this page is better for long-term upkeep once several levels are underway.
