List of spanish words
 

I am trying to compile a list of Spanish words for flashcards. I would like to make sure these words have the correct translation and are not too difficult for a beginner. The word list is attached...any help would be appreciated!

Welcome to the forums, that's a pretty long list you have there. I looked through the letter A and found a few that were not completely correct.

acordar to decide Also "to agree on"
acaso perhaps, maybe "acaso" means more like "are you sure..."
advertir to notice advertir = to warn

The translations are mostly correct, but certainly not the only translations for the words. Below are some corrections/additions.

tu = your
tú = you
tía is listed twice - once by itself and once with tío
tercero = third (tercer is used, as is tercera)
su = his, her, its, your
segundo/a
Just like e is an alternate for y when followed by a word starting with i or hi,
u is an alternate for o when followed by o or ho.
nuestro = our
mesa = table
medio = half, middle means (as in a method)
masa = dough mass (physics)
introducir = insert
hecho = fact, act
gustar = to like (to be pleasing to somebody)
ésta = this (pronoun)
el/la = the
los/las = the
unos/unas = some
del = from the / of the
de la / de las / de los = from the / of the
al = to the
a la / a las / a los = to the
deber = (to owe is certainly one of its meanings, but you'll be using it as 'must' or 'should' much more often)
dato = datum (a piece of information)
datos = data, information
cumplir = to accomplish, to obey, to fulfill, to carry out
cuyo = whose
dar = to give
corresponder = corresponds with/to (not to communicate with), belongs to
capacidad = ability (have the capacity to do something)
acordar = to agree


As a beginner, I would recommend that you learn the definite article along with the noun. In addition, many Spanish verbs are followed by certain prepositions (not always the same ones we use in English). It would be good to know those prepositions by heart. So, singular and plural definite articles with the nouns and possible prepositions with the verbs.
The reason for these helpful hints will become obvious down the road. For example, el agua wasn't on your list (las aguas is the plural form - the plural form helps you to remember that agua is feminine even though it takes a masculine article in the singular form). To dream about is soñar con in Spanish. Pensar en means to think about. Ir is always followed by the preposition a, as is asistir (which doesn't mean to assist).

A number of the words in your list are a bit advanced for a beginner.
Replace the words you won't use in the next 4 hours during normal conversation with conjugated verbs, pronouns, and prepositions. Small, well-known and oft-used phrases would also be a good addition. Vocabulary is important, but even more important is knowing how the pieces fit together.
