YCT 4 Chinese Grammar

Youth Chinese Test (YCT), an international standardized test of Chinese language proficiency, assesses the primary and middle school students' abilities to use Chinese as second language in their daily and academic lives. 

The YCT (Level IV) tests test takers’ ability in daily use of Chinese. It is the counterpart of the Level III of the Chinese Language Proficiency Scales for Speakers of Other Languages and the B1 Level of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEF). Test takers who are able to pass the YCT (Level IV) can communicate in Chinese at a basic level in their daily, academic and professional lives. When travelling in China, they can manage most forms of communication in Chinese.

The YCT (Level V) is intended for young students who have studied Chinese for more than two semesters, with 2-3 class hours per week. These students have mastered 600 commonly used words and related grammar patterns.

The "International Chinese Language Education Standards for Chinese Proficiency Levels" were released on March 31, 2021 and will be formally implemented on July 1, 2021. Within just two months of the release, I became the first person in the world to compile a vocabulary list with the best possible English. This was made possible thanks to the 10 years of effort I put into building my database, which includes over 500,000 vocabulary words that served as the foundation for editing my textbooks.

Students who have used my vocabulary list have called it "life-saving" for their exams. My book provides a quick revision guide for those preparing for exams, so be sure to grab a copy!
