“I built Chinese XP because I couldn't find a tool that let me truly learn from the content I loved. Nothing helped me read, build vocabulary, and remember it all. So I created the tool I needed.”

— The creator of Chinese XP, a fellow Chinese learner

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Chinese XP

How is Chinese XP different from other language learning apps?

Chinese XP isn’t about tapping through flashcards or repeating preset phrases. It’s built specifically for reading comprehension, helping you immerse yourself in real Chinese content — books, articles, essays, anything you love. With tools like instant popup dictionary, one-click flashcard creation, and SRS-powered reviews, Chinese XP integrates directly into your reading flow, so learning happens as you read, not before or after.

Can I use my own materials to study?

Yes! You can paste in any Chinese text — a book, a news article, a YouTube transcript — and turn it into a learning experience. Chinese XP adapts to the content you care about, which makes reading more motivating and more effective.

Do I need to know any Chinese to start?

Chinese XP works best if you already have some basic knowledge of Chinese — you don’t need to be advanced, but total beginners might find it challenging at first. If you’ve studied the basics (like HSK 2), you’ll be able to take full advantage of the platform. Thanks to the instant popup dictionary, you can start reading right away and build your vocabulary as you go. We’re also working on graded reading content, which will make Chinese XP more beginner-friendly in the near future.

What kind of vocabulary tools are included?

While reading, you can right-click any word to add it to a flashcard deck or word list, and we’ll automatically generate example sentences to help you understand it in context. You can also mark words as “learning” or “learned,” and view all your vocabulary — with both simplified and traditional forms — in one place.

What’s planned for the future of Chinese XP?

We’re just getting started. Soon, we’ll introduce graded content, so you can enjoy materials that match your level. You’ll also be able to listen to audio of the texts you’re reading — for better pronunciation and comprehension. As an early user, you’ll help shape what comes next.
