Use dictation with a clear learning goal
Train listening and handwriting together with HSK vocabulary dictation. Hear the word, use the meaning as a disambiguating hint, write each Hanzi with stroke feedback, and reveal the answer only when needed.
Listen before reading
Play the prompt and use the meaning hint to separate homophones.
Write and check
Complete the characters on the guided canvas, then reveal or move to the next item.
When to use it
Listening recall
Connect a spoken word with the characters you need to produce.
Handwriting diagnosis
Notice whether an error comes from sound, character choice, or stroke execution.
HSK review
Practise a defined curriculum level without mixing unrelated vocabulary.
Questions about dictation
Why is a meaning hint shown?
Mandarin has many homophones, so the hint identifies the intended HSK word without exposing the characters.
Can I change the HSK level?
Yes. Choose either curriculum version and any available level from the controls.
Does dictation check stroke order?
Yes. The writing canvas gives stroke-level guidance for the current character.
