HSK 4 四级 2.0
Converse in Chinese across a broad range of topics and communicate comfortably with native speakers. This is the older six-level HSK 2.0 list. Learn the words in frequency order and the rest of the level gets far easier.
Quick answer
How many words are in HSK 4 (2.0), and what is on the list?
HSK 4 under the older HSK 2.0 standard contains 598 new words, bringing the cumulative HSK 2.0 total through Level 4 to 1,193 words. The full list is below, highest-frequency entries first, each with simplified and traditional hanzi, tone-marked pinyin, part of speech, a corpus frequency rank, an English gloss, and the level the same word sits at in the newer nine-level HSK 3.0 scheme. In HSK 3.0 the equivalent Level 4 holds 972 new words, so the two standards do not line up one to one.
Knowing every HSK 2.0 word up to and including Level 4 means you recognize about 57.8% of the running words in everyday spoken Chinese (film and TV subtitles), because the most frequent words are front-loaded into the lower levels. That is token coverage, not full comprehension. See the full ladder.

How to use this list
| Check which scheme your test uses | If your test center still administers the older six-level HSK 2.0, this is the exact list for your Level 4 exam. If it uses the 2021 nine-level HSK 3.0, follow the cross-link above to the 3.0 Level 4 table instead, the word sets differ. |
| Study in frequency order | The rows are ranked by corpus frequency, so the words nearer the top appear far more often in real Chinese. Front-loading them gives the fastest reading and listening gains. |
| Read the HSK 3.0 column | Each word shows the level it sits at in the newer scheme. Words marked · are not in HSK 3.0 at all. It is the fastest way to see how the two standards diverge on your own vocabulary. |
Not sure this is your level? Take the free placement test, it estimates your level on both the 2.0 and 3.0 scales.
