Collect any word, learn it, and print real practice. TraceSheet is for anyone learning words in Chinese, Japanese, Korean or English — students, parents, teachers and self-learners. Save a word the moment you meet it, then hear it, flip flashcards, write it stroke by stroke and print sheets that look like a copybook. PRINT PRACTICE SHEETS — FREE, AS MANY AS YOU LIKE • 田字格 tian-grid sheets with 描红 tracing, and pinyin over the characters • Pinyin four-line sheets, English handwriting lines, notebook lines and square grid • Every layout setting: A4 or US Letter, margins, cell size, spacing, guide style, trace cells and shade • Print with AirPrint, share a PDF or save an image as often as you like. Free exports contain page 1 of each sheet and carry a small App Store QR code, so a teacher can hand the same sheet to the whole class COLLECT ANY WORD, ANY TIME Tap Add a word and it goes straight into Quick notes, a list that is always there for whatever you haven't sorted yet. Type or paste several words at once, or scan a photo. Sort them into lists later, or add words to a list you already have. ABOUT 2,000 WORDS PER LANGUAGE • Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), English, Japanese and Korean • Topic decks in five levels, from first words to bigger ideas • Search by word, reading or meaning — "shui" finds 水 • Tap + on any word to add it to a list, or start a whole deck in one tap HEAR IT, READ IT, UNDERSTAND IT Every word shows its reading — pinyin, kana with romaji, Korean romanization or US IPA for English — plus its meaning and a speaker button. On iOS 18 or later, missing meanings can be translated on the device. WRITE ON SCREEN Trace or write from memory with a finger or Apple Pencil. Chinese characters, kana and hangul are checked stroke by stroke, in the right order. FLASHCARDS AND DICTATION Flip cards with the word, reading, meaning or sound on the front, or choose from four options. Dictation reads each word aloud for you to write on paper, then you mark it — words that need another go come back for review. LISTS THAT WORK THE WAY YOU DO Lists save themselves. Move or copy words between lists, merge lists and pin the ones you use most. Mixed-language lists are fine: each word keeps its own language for reading, voice and practice. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up, no ads. Your words stay on your device, and TraceSheet works offline. iPhone and iPad, in 12 languages. TRACESHEET PRO — ONE-TIME PURCHASE, NO SUBSCRIPTION You can try every Pro sheet option for free: the preview shows page 1, and one tap switches back to the free options.
