HSK 2 vocabulary list

HSK 2 marks the elementary stage of Mandarin proficiency, adding 150 words to reach a cumulative 300-word vocabulary for simple daily tasks, travel, and routine exchanges. The exam lasts approximately 55 minutes and features two sections: Listening (35 questions, 25 minutes) and Reading (25 questions, 22 minutes), plus 5 minutes to complete answer forms. Scored out of 200 total points (100 per section), the passing threshold is 120 points. While HSK 2.0 provides pinyin alongside characters, the updated HSK 3.0 framework phases pinyin out much earlier — see our HSK 3.0 explainer for details. Build your core vocabulary with themed sets like numbers and greetings, or practice HSK 2 flashcards using active recall to master both recognition and meaning.

149 shown Practise →

In HSK 3.0 these words fall in bands 1–2: Band 1 Band 2

At this level you can handle simple daily tasks, ask for directions and conduct routine exchanges.
