A Frequency Dictionary of Spanish: Core Vocabulary for Learners

Routledge Frequency Dictionaries

by Mark Davies, Kathy Hayward Davies

A Frequency Dictionary of Spanish has been fully revised and updated, including over 500 new entries, making it an invaluable resource for students of Spanish.

Based on a new web-based corpus containing more than 2 billion words collected from 21 Spanish-speaking countries, the second edition of A Frequency Dictionary of Spanish provides the most expansive and up-to-date guidelines on Spanish vocabulary. Each entry is accompanied with an illustrative example and full English translation.

The Dictionary provides a rich resource for language teaching and curriculum design, while a separate CD version provides the full text in a tab-delimited format ideally suited for use by corpus and computational linguistics.

With entries arranged both by frequency and alphabetically, A Frequency Dictionary of Spanish enables students of all levels to get the most out of their study of vocabulary in an engaging and efficient way.

[Daniel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Best frequency dictionary I've ever found, bar none. Has a Spanish phrase and English translation for each word. Has an alphabetical list in addition to the main frequency list. I went through it to fill in any patches I may have in my vocabulary, and they seem to have used a reasonably well-rounded corpus. Excellent book.
