Hanzi Trail

Hanzi Trail is a Mandarin Chinese learning app for flashcards, handwriting, AI speech practice, stories, conversations and advanced dictionary.

Use The Public Dictionary

Search Hanzi, English, or pinyin, then inspect definitions, examples, character components, radicals, stroke order, and handwriting checks before you add words to flashcards.

  • Look up words and single characters from the same search box.
  • Practice handwriting from character cards and check your drawing.
  • Sign in to save decks, known words, settings, review progress, and available word audio.

Guided Mandarin Practice

Logged-in learners can turn dictionary discoveries, story vocabulary, and conversation lines into review queues for pinyin, meaning, handwriting, listening, and speaking practice.

Speech practice with AI feedback/correction helps signed-in learners compare Mandarin pronunciation attempts with corrective guidance.
