力所能及 is pronounced lìsuǒnéngjí and means “Hacer todo lo posible”. HSK 6 places it in the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, the standardised measure of Chinese proficiency. There is a real difference between having seen 力所能及 and being able to use it, and cramming a list flatters the first while doing little for the second.
