Common questions
What is Maksey?
Maksey helps you practice Chinese with your own word lists. Listen, write on paper, check your answers, and review words based on your results.
What can I try for free?
Practice up to 100 different words in this browser for free, without signing in. Listen to recorded human voices and check your answers yourself. Repeating a word does not use more of your allowance, and the allowance does not reset daily. Stroke order lookup is also free.
How are targeted retry and spaced review different?
Targeted retry repeats only the words missed in the current round. Spaced review schedules later practice from valid learning records, including words you previously answered correctly. Both are membership features.
Is a human voice recording available for every word?
Use existing human recordings or AI voices, with the source labeled. Missing audio is not generated automatically. Choose a pronunciation when needed.
