What’s inside every card

Flashcard illustration of an airplane

Its own illustration

Every single word got a custom, textbook-style picture. 2,501 of them. Toggle them off any time with the built-in switch when you want pure recall.

妈麻马骂

Tone-colored hanzi

A colored underline marks the tone of each character — 1st 2nd 3rd 4th — so tones sink in passively, on every review, without cluttering the characters.

wǒ我I
zuò坐take
dì tiě地铁subway

Sentence View grammar maps

The example sentence is drawn as an interlinear diagram: per-syllable pinyin over hanzi, each word aligned to its English gloss. You see the grammar, not just read about it.

Voice on every card

Word and full example sentence, neural-TTS narrated for all 2,501 entries. Autoplays on the answer; replay either one with a tap.

飞fēito fly 机jīmachine

Character components

Multi-character words come apart on the back: each character with its own pinyin and meaning. 2,071 breakdowns — compound words stop being arbitrary.

你好世界

Handwritten font, embedded

Hanzi render in LXGW WenKai — a beautiful handwriting-style font bundled inside the deck. Same look on desktop, AnkiDroid and AnkiMobile. Plus part-of-speech badges on every card.

Deck 01 · recognition

HSK Illustrated Sentence View

汉字 + picture  →  meaning

  • Word audio on the front (optional tap), word + sentence autoplay on the back

Deck 02 · production

HSK Sentences Cloze

sentence with a gap  →  the word

The front gives you a real sentence with the target word blanked out, its translation and the picture as a hint. You produce the word in context — the skill that actually makes you speak.

  • 2,472 cloze cards across the complete HSK 1–5 range
  • Front stays silent — no spoilers; back reveals the word and plays word + sentence
  • Same tone underlines, components and handwritten font
  • Use both decks together: recognition in, production out

Beyond HSK: topic packs

Small, focused decks for real situations the HSK list doesn’t drill — ordering in a restaurant, getting around the city, watching the World Cup, playing Xiangqi in the park. Same illustrated cards, audio and sentence maps. Free.

Questions

How do I install the decks?

Install Anki (free on desktop & Android, paid on iOS), then double-click the .apkg file — or open it from the Anki app. Each deck imports with per-level subdecks, so you can start exactly at your HSK level.

Which platforms are supported?

Anki Desktop (Windows/macOS/Linux), AnkiDroid and AnkiMobile (iOS). Fonts, audio, images and the sentence maps are all embedded in the deck — no add-ons needed.

Do I need both decks?

They’re designed as a pair: the Illustrated deck trains recognition (see the word → recall the meaning), the Sentences deck trains production (see the context → recall the word). Both share the same HSK 1–5 library, so they reinforce each other.

What exactly is in the vocabulary?

The complete official HSK 2.0 lists for levels 1–5 — 2,501 words. Everyday situations, football and Xiangqi live in separate topic packs you can add à la carte.

Is it really free?

Yes. You get direct download links by email; the links stay valid for 7 days (just ask again if they expire).
