Connect English meanings and Hanzi while missed words return more often.
Practice the words that need your attention
ZiMatch turns 3,600 HSK Level 1–5 vocabulary words into short recognition games that fit the time and pace you choose.
New words and mistake words return more often
ZiMatch remembers which words you have practiced. New words are featured regularly so your vocabulary keeps expanding, while words you miss become more likely to appear in later rounds. Words you answer correctly remain available, but the words that need more work receive more attention.
The result is varied practice instead of a fixed review queue: you continue moving through the HSK curriculum without losing sight of difficult words.
Two ways to strengthen recognition
Translate one word at a time by choosing from five answers.
Both games use the same learning record. A word missed in one game can receive more practice in the other, so switching games does not mean starting over.
Practice your way
Practice English to Hanzi or Hanzi to English depending on the skill you want to strengthen.
Choose a quick challenge or remove the clock and focus entirely on recognition.
Use a short set when time is limited or a larger set for a longer study session.
Show pinyin as a learning aid or hide it when you are ready to rely on character recognition.
Progress without a required account
Anonymous progress is saved in your browser by default. That includes your unlocked curriculum, practice results, settings, round history, and streak. If you want the same progress on another device, optional email sign-in securely synchronizes the learning record through Supabase.
A completed round counts as one streak day in your local timezone. Completing more rounds on the same day adds practice without artificially increasing the day count.
An HSK-based path
The Word Library follows supplied New HSK Level 1–5 vocabulary lists, moving from 300 Level 1 words through a total of 3,600 words. You can unlock the curriculum in groups of 50 and browse every word currently available to you.
ZiMatch is an independent study tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the HSK administrators.
