Store description excerpt
Kylin teaches Mandarin on the new HSK 3.0 syllabus, in force since July 2026. Most published word lists are still the older ones. Three levels in all: 1,011 words and 655 characters, with 22 graded readings. HSK 1 is free and complete. All 300 words, all 248 characters, the grammar behind them, and eight short readings built only from what you have already met. HOW IT TEACHES You produce the answer. Multiple choice happens once, the first time an item appears. After that you say it out loud, or you write it by hand. Picking the right option out of four is an easier thing than remembering, and only remembering survives a conversation. Nothing appears out of nowhere. A sentence never holds more than one piece you have not been taught, so reading stays reading instead of turning into decoding. The pace follows you. A run of correct answers speeds things up, and a lapse slows it down. An item leaves your queue when you can recall it, not because you tapped past it. CHARACTERS, PROPERLY Every character is taken apart into the pieces it is actually built from, and the pieces are taught before the characters that use them. Stroke order is animated, and the characters you write by hand are graded stroke by stroke. Tones get a drill of their own. 妈 and 马 are one syllable and two different words, so the tone is the word. The drill works in pairs, because the mistakes that last are the ones between two tones in a row. Each one carries a short story tying its pieces to its meaning, and a painting of that story to remember it by. NOTHING TO PROTECT Miss a day and nothing breaks. Your reviews move, and the app stays quiet about it. What gets measured is what you can still recall weeks later, which is the only figure worth anything. YOUR OWN LANGUAGE, WHERE IT COUNTS Word meanings, character stories, grammar notes and reading glosses are written in English, Vietnamese, Thai, Korean, Indonesian, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Russian, Italian, French and Turkish. Not only the buttons, the part that does the teaching. WORKS OFFLINE The whole course sits on your phone. No download before a lesson, no blank screen on a bad connection. KYLIN PRO Unlocks HSK 2 and HSK 3: 711 more words, 407 more characters, their grammar and fourteen more readings. Monthly, yearly, or a single payment that never renews. Dictionary glosses come from CC-CEDICT under CC BY-SA 4.0. Stroke and component data come from Make Me a Hanzi under the Arphic Public License. Both are credited in the app. Privacy: https://iocodo.com/apps/kylin/privacy.html Support: https://iocodo.com/apps/kylin/support.html Terms: https://iocodo.com/apps/kylin/terms.html
