Living in a Chinese city means dealing with traffic jams, parking disputes, and noise complaints. This free printable worksheet covers twelve HSK 3 words for city rules and problems, so you can handwrite the vocabulary you'll actually use when navigating urban life in Mandarin. Each word sits in a 田字格 (tián zì gé) tracing grid with pinyin above it, ready to print or download as a PDF.
The page focuses on vocabulary for traffic, noise, parking, and following the rules. You'll trace and write 城市 (chéng shì), 问题 (wèn tí), 规定 (guī dìng), 注意 (zhù yì), 交通 (jiāo tōng), and 安静 (ān jìng), among others. All twelve words come from the HSK 3.0 vocabulary lists and align with SayMei's course weeks, so the practice matches what you're already studying in the HSK 3 lessons hub page.
Start by tracing the guided strokes for each character, feeling the proportions within the 田字格 grid. Then cover the model and write the character from memory in the blank grids beside it. Say each word aloud as you write — pairing the sound with the motion helps retention. If you want extra blank grids for repeated practice, grab the blank printable 田字格 writing grid paper as a companion.
