trainchinese will teach you Chinese, with a free and complete dictionary, thousands of vocab lists, example sentences, audio recordings, measure words, and character animations – and a powerful flash card system featuring handwriting training. Join thousands of others who've learned Chinese with trainchinese!
Our dictionary promotes useful vocab over simple text matching. For example, try searching for "tree" in your existing Chinese dictionary. More than likely you'll see 木 – a character, and not really a vocab word! Search with trainchinese and you'll get 树 ("tree") first and 一棵树 ("a tree") second – now that's useful!
Words are organised into more than 1,500 word lists covering topics from International Relations to American Football Teams and more. And yes – we have complete vocab lists for HSK, TOCFL and YCT! Something's missing? We often add new lists on request so that everybody can benefit!
Create flash cards with audio and animation from dictionary entries. Organise them into lists, and share them with friends (or students). The Spaced Repetition system ensures you'll memorize those words for good and focuses separately on reading, writing, listening and translation from your native language. No other flash card system for Chinese goes so deep.
Flash cards are saved on your machine and synchronized automatically with trainchinese.com alongside your study notes, where you can also train with them and find more great content.
