copy written material
抄 can mean copying text for practice or taking notes. In a context such as 抄别人的作业, it can mean copying someone else’s homework. 抄袭 specifically means plagiarize; the situation determines whether copying is appropriate.

About this word list
The index includes all 5,400 official HSK 3.0 entries across six levels. Different readings and official entries remain separate. Original teaching examples illustrate particular uses; additional dictionary senses are reference support. This does not establish complete syllabus teaching or exam readiness.
Use example pinyin with the audio. 一 and 不 can change tone in ordinary speech; revisit tone changes if these sound different. 儿 can join the preceding syllable, as in huìr.
