This grammar wiki is designed to be browsable and user-friendly, accessible to beginners while still possessing the depth that more advanced users will find useful.  The best way to get started is to just jump right in and start clicking around.  Not everything is finished yet, but content is continually being added. (If you'd like to contribute content, by all means, [[Contact|get in touch]]!)
 
  
−
Note that this wiki does make extensive use of Chinese characters.  In order to save the time of the editors and direct it toward real content additions, we do not provide pinyin for characters. We realize that this makes the content far less accessible to beginners, but there is a solution: '''students of Chinese should [[Tools|install free browser extensions]] to handle the character issue'''.  In this way, the burden is taken off of our editors' shoulders, and the wheel need not be reinvented with regards to this particular issue.

All of our [[A1]] and [[A2]] grammar points have pinyin throughout, but if you want pinyin for ''all'' the Chinese characters in this wiki, you can do that using '''[[Tools#Browser Extensions: Pinyin Popups|free browser plugins]]'''. Also try clicking on the little cog at the top right of any page to add spaces between characters.

Both our B2 Kindle version and our B2 print version are available now!

Your practical, free, comprehensive online resource for Chinese grammar. 2,125 articles and growing! Jump to: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1. Or: HSK 1, HSK 2, and HSK 3.

Beginner-Friendly Grammar Points

A1 grammar points: Our list is designed especially for beginners, all difficult vocabulary and grammar banished to the later levels. Easy examples, each one with pinyin. Try clicking on one of the images below:

有 (yǒu) 没有 (méiyǒu) 也 (yě) 是 (shì) 很 (hěn) 要 (yào)

See the full list of 40 A1 grammar points...

Essential Elementary Grammar Points

A2 grammar points: So you've learned some basic grammar, but still need pinyin and want to build a stronger foundation? You've come to the right place! Check out some of the following pages:

比 (bi) 下 (xia) 在 (zài) 了 (le) 过 (guo) 吧 (ba)

See the full list of 99 A2 grammar points...

Accessible Intermediate Grammar Points

B1 grammar points: For when you're ready to really consolidate your grammar knowledge and fill in the gaps, but really don't want to slog through a grammar textbook. Our self-contained grammar points give you just the right amount to work on.

又 (you) 把 (ba) 才 (cai) 再 (zai) 被 (bei) 为 (wei)

See the full list of 143 B1 grammar points...

Upgrading to Upper Intermediate

B2 grammar points: These aren't easy, and often involve more formal language or finer points of the more basic grammar points. It's getting hard to find explanations that really address your needs, but this is one place you can find them!

而 (er) 倒 (dao) 像 (xiang) 差 (cha) 并 (bing) 就是 (jiushi)

See the full list of 154 B2 grammar points...

Ready for the really advanced stuff?

Our C1 grammar points are still a work in progress (there are 69 so far), but if you'd like to help edit them, please get in touch.

Need Help with Pinyin?

Pinyin Popup Plugins

All of our A1 and A2 grammar points have pinyin throughout, but if you want pinyin for all the Chinese characters in this wiki, you can do that using free browser plugins. Also try clicking on the little cog at the top right of any page to add spaces between characters.

There are about 400 Chinese keywords in the full list. Check it out.

English Translations

We've Got Your Textbooks and Grammar Books Covered

It's not yet time to throw out those textbooks! We all use the internet for everything now, but we see also the value in textbook grammar explanations and exercises, and are doing our best to link textbooks to our own Chinese Grammar Wiki content. To see how it works, click on one of the book covers below or try finding your own textbook in our list, and then seeing what it links to.


Purchasing a book on Amazon by clicking on the links within this website will also help to support the Chinese Grammar Wiki.
