We’re already at Week 4 — almost halfway through our 10‑week speed run to cover all 300 New HSK 1 words, built from the latest HSK 3.0 syllabus. Whether you’re studying for the exam or just want a solid foundation, this series is your shortcut. (Missed the earlier episodes? No stress, you can jump in right here. Every episode works on its own.)

Today is all about food, drinks, and ordering. You’ll learn around 30 words you’ll use every time you sit down to eat or grab a drink — like 饭 (rice), 茶 (tea), 好吃 (delicious), and simple phrases for ordering at a restaurant. Every word comes with pinyin, English, and example sentences you can use straight away.

The full vocabulary list for this episode is on Patreon, together with complete transcripts for all past episodes, episode‑based exercises, and bonus audio. Everything is there to help you keep building your Chinese.

Make sure you follow our podcast & subscribe our Patreon so you don’t miss a single word.
