HSK 2 — Complete Vocabulary

HSK 2 Vocabulary: All 150 Words with Pinyin (HSK 2.0)

HSK 2 adds 150 new words to the 150 of HSK 1. This deck covers those words from the HSK 2.0 syllabus: family (丈夫, 妻子, 妹妹), school and work (考试), daily life, sports, food, transport, weather and the body, plus the grammar words that let you build longer sentences, such as 因为, 正在, 再 and 可以.

Every card shows the characters, the pinyin with tone marks and the English meaning, with measure words for nouns (辆 for 公共汽车, 杯 for 牛奶). Each word has an example sentence with pinyin and a translation. If you have not finished HSK 1 yet, start with the HSK 1 vocabulary deck.
