About Hanzily: Learn Chinese & HSK
Hanzily is a Chinese learning toolkit that works on your phone, with no account and no sign-up. Look up words offline, watch characters being written stroke by stroke, read real Chinese with pinyin above every word, review flashcards and practise for HSK. Your progress stays on your device.
LOOK UP
• Offline dictionary: search by Chinese characters (simplified or traditional), pinyin with tone marks, pinyin without tones or numbered pinyin
• Search by handwriting or by radical and stroke count
• Word detail with parts, measure words and example sentences
• Select text in any app and look it up in a quick pop-up
• Bookmarks, history and your own word lists
WRITE CHARACTERS
• Animated stroke order for thousands of characters
• Trace and write-from-memory practice with stroke checking
• 214 radicals, stroke order rules, practice sheets you can print
READ WITH PINYIN
• Point the camera at Chinese text to see pinyin above each word, then tap a word for its meaning
• Paste text or open a screenshot to get pinyin, with tone colors you can switch on or off
• Graded reading, line-by-line translation and a saved sentence bank
• The text recognition and translation models are downloaded once, so the first use needs an internet connection
SPEAK AND LISTEN
• Pinyin chart with audio, tone drills and minimal pairs
• Dialogues read aloud by your phone's Chinese voice
• Say a sentence and see how well it matches the text. This checks the words recognized, not your tones
• Number, date and money drills
REVIEW AND REMEMBER
• Spaced-repetition flashcards with a scheduler that adapts to how well you remember
• Ready-made HSK and topic decks, or build your own
• Hard-card list, statistics, streaks and daily goals
• Widgets and word reminders
PRACTISE FOR HSK
• HSK word and syllabus map, level check and a study plan for your exam date
• Practice exams with timed sections, score estimate and a mistake book
• The practice exams are original Hanzily material, written for practice. They are not official HSK exams and are not affiliated with Chinese Testing International
GRAMMAR AND CULTURE
• Grammar notes, particles, measure words and sentence building
• Idioms, travel phrases, menu decoder and festivals
80+ TOOLS IN ONE APP
Everything above and more, in one place: simplified and traditional conversion, tone and pinyin drills, typing practice and themes.
