Free HSK 7-9 Anki deck — 5,600 words
The HSK 7-9 vocabulary band from the reformed HSK 3.0, Anki-ready. It is by far the largest single list we publish, covering the advanced band as one set rather than three.
Sample words
12 entries taken from across the list, exactly as they appear in the file. A dash means the reading would just repeat the word.

How to import it into Anki
- Download the file above, then open Anki and choose File > Import.
- Set the note type to Basic and the deck to whatever you like.
- Set the field separator to Tab, and tick "Allow HTML in fields" so readings show on their own line.

The file is plain text, so it also opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or any flashcard app that reads TSV or CSV.
Questions
How do I import this into Anki?
Easiest is the .apkg: double-click it and Anki imports the deck, tagged by level, with nothing to configure. If you prefer the TSV, use File > Import, set note type Basic and separator Tab, tick "Allow HTML in fields" so readings appear on their own line, then map the three columns to Front, Back and Tags.
Why is 7-9 one deck rather than three?
HSK 3.0 defines 7, 8 and 9 as a single combined vocabulary band rather than three separate lists, so it is published the way the standard defines it.
Can I share or reuse this deck?
Yes. These lists are free to download, use in class, and redistribute. Teachers are welcome to hand them to students directly.
After the word list
A deck builds recognition, which is necessary and not sufficient — words settle once you meet them somewhere you actually wanted to read. InputDojo imports any article or video and tells you what share of it you already know. InputDojo
