We started with Mark Davies’ excellent 5,000-word Spanish frequency list. From this list, we removed over 3700 words that you can easily learn through immersion (i.e. words that look the same as English words or are just similar forms of words you’ve already learned). This left only the cream of the crop — the 1000 most words that are the most important to learn through dedicated vocabulary study.
When you combine the 1000 words in this deck with the 3700 words you can easily learn through immersion, you’ll know 4700 words in just 3 months! As we teach in our Teach Yourself a Language Course, this is enough words to understand and enjoy real native media content.
In addition to painstakingly analyzing the most important words that beginners need to learn, we also hired a native Spanish speaker from Mexico to create authentic example sentences with audio. This way, you can learn all of these new words in context, gaining a deeper intuitive understanding of how they are actually used in real life.
We even optimized the sentence order! Over 90% of the sentences in this vocabulary deck introduce only one new word at a time.
Learning Spanish vocabulary has never been easier than with the ES1K Vocabulary Deck.
The hardest part of learning a language is basic comprehension. Once you can understand enough to have fun, you'll never want to stop.

Yep! It just takes time, energy, and effort. The Spanish deck took our team of data scientists, high-level Spanish learners, and Spanish natives about 150 hours to create. We’ve done the hard work so you don’t have to.
If it’s your first time studying a language, then you probably should.
Duolingo is a language-learning video game. It’s a great way to try out a language to see if you like it and to build a daily habit of engaging with the language.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t get you very far, and definitely won’t help you understand Spanish.
Yep! But they have a few problems:
