This page holds 23,992 Spanish words beginning with A, the largest single letter group in the collection.
C leads the second position at only about twelve percent, with B, P and L close behind at ten, ten and nine. No branch comes near dominating.
That flatness is what makes the group so large. A combines freely with almost every consonant, where most letters are limited to a handful.
Spanish builds verbs by attaching A to a root, giving ABRIR, APOYAR and ACERCAR. Each of those then carries dozens of conjugated forms.
So a large part of this page is grammar rather than distinct vocabulary, which is worth knowing before you read the number as a measure of variety.
AMIGO, ABRIR, ANTES, APOYO and ABAJO are among the entries a beginner meets first, and they sit on four different second letters.
With nearly twenty four thousand entries, reading this page in order is not practical. Filtering by length or by second letter is the faster route.
The five and six letter filters are the most rewarding, since that is where the everyday nouns sit rather than the conjugations.
It works as a preposition, as a verb prefix and as the opening of countless roots, so three separate sources feed the same letter.
No. A single verb contributes many conjugated forms, so the count of entries is considerably higher than the count of separate meanings.
AMIGO and ANTES come up constantly, and the preposition A itself is one of the most frequent words in the language despite being a single letter.
