Frequently Asked Questions

About our apps

What is Master Chinese?

A Chinese learning app built around textbooks, made by Master of Languages. You choose the book your course uses, study each chapter's new words with flashcards, read graded texts that match what you know, look words up in the dictionary and track your HSK progress.

What are graded reading and the text analyzer?

Graded reading is a library of 3,000+ Chinese texts. Each one shows how much of it you already know, new words are marked, and you can turn on pinyin or tap a word for its meaning. The text analyzer is in the dictionary: switch to Analyze text, paste any Chinese text, simplified or traditional, and you get its words, pinyin, meanings, word types and grammar.

Does Master Chinese have a Chinese dictionary?

Yes. A Chinese–English dictionary with 100,000+ entries is built in. Search in Chinese characters, pinyin or English, and see the meaning, example words and sentences. It also opens the text analyzer.

Which textbooks are included?

More than 40 series and 180 books, including HSK Standard Course, Boya, Developing Chinese and Short-Term Spoken Chinese. If your book is missing, write to us.

Does it cover HSK 3.0?

Yes. It tracks HSK 3.0 (9 levels, 11,000 words) and HSK 2.0 (6 levels, 5,000 words), and shows which words in each level you already know.

Is there a Master Korean or Master Japanese app?

Master Korean is in development and comes next. Master Japanese has started and follows after it. See the Master Korean and Master Japanese pages to hear when they launch.
