ABSTRACT

Spanish, starting with such basic words as el and de,

and quickly progressing through to more intermediate

and advanced words. Because the dictionary is based

on the actual frequency of words in a large 20 million

word corpus (collection of texts) of many different

types of Spanish texts (fiction, non-fiction, and actual

conversations), the user can feel comfortable that

these are words that one is very likely to subsequently

encounter in the “real world”.
