About Funetical: Mandarin Vocabulary
Remember the Mandarin words you're learning.
Add exactly the words you want from class, reading, textbooks, songs, PDFs or photos, or start with all 11,000 HSK 3.0 words and more than 60,000 audio example sentences.
For words you add, Funetical creates definitions, audio and varied example sentences, so you do not have to make flashcards by hand.
SEE YOUR WORDS IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS
Many vocabulary apps show a word by itself or always use the same example sentence. Funetical brings each word back in different contexts, using vocabulary appropriate for your level. This helps you learn how the word is actually used instead of memorising one card.
BUILD EVERY KIND OF RECALL
Reading, listening and speaking are practised and scheduled separately. Knowing a word when you see it does not always mean you will understand it in speech or be able to use it yourself.
Every example sentence includes audio.
REMEMBER WITH SPACED REPETITION
Words come back for review just as you're likely to forget them, while familiar words appear less often.
ALSO INCLUDED
• Ready-made HSK 3.0 collections from HSK 1 through 7-9
• Simplified and traditional characters
• Optional pinyin, English and Chinese definitions
• Speaking or typing exercises
• Offline reading and listening reviews that sync when you reconnect
• Interface available in English or Chinese
No games or filler. Just focused Mandarin vocabulary practice.
Every new account gets 14 days of full access. After that, continue free with daily limits or subscribe for full access. You can try the app before signing up, and no payment details are required.
