Question policy and updates
- These are original study questions based on TOCFL’s published level framework, formats and learning resources.
- Official test questions are not reproduced. Use the official TOCFL site for official mock questions and audio.
- Lower levels emphasize high-frequency vocabulary, basic grammar and short texts; higher levels emphasize abstract vocabulary, paragraph completion and longer reading.
- Some listening, image, CAT, speaking and writing skills are adapted to four-choice format, so this does not measure every official skill directly.
- Items are reviewed when Taiwan Mandarin usage or official formats change.
