HSK 7–9 vocabulary list
All 5,189 words of HSK 7–9, with pinyin and English definitions. Every one of them is built only from characters taught in HanziLoom, so you can study the list and the characters in the same place.
How to use this list
Learning a word list by heart is the slow way. The characters in this list are the same 2,255 taught in the app, so the faster route is to learn the character once — how it is written, how it sounds, what it means — and then let the words come for free. Words whose characters you already know are not new vocabulary, they are a new combination.
A practical order: take the characters of this level first (the app queues them by frequency and by scenario), then read this list as a checklist. If a word still does not stick, it is usually because one of its characters is only half learned — the mock paper at the end of the level will tell you which.
