Last year, u/SpanishInput published an awesome list of 5000 most common Spanish words here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Spanish/comments/uxs10w/oc_the_5000_most_common_spanish_words_calculated/
The list was useful but I wanted an easy way to study it, so I've used the Azure Translate API to translate every word and add a usage example where available. The translations/samples are not perfect but I think it's good enough to start practicing.

¡Hola!
after finishing the book called "a frequency dictionary of spanish" by Mark davies which lists 5,000 words and a few other books, I'm looking for a bigger list that doesn't need to have English translations. I've tried to search reddit and other places but couldn't find anything. I'm actually considering to flat out buy the oxford dictionary linked below and grind words from there but I do want to get the most bang for my buck, hence a frequency list.
Where can I find a good frequency list of the 10,000 most used words or other big frequency lists?

¡muchas gracias!
I finally finished the Spanish Top 5000 most used Vocabulary: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/241428882
I just got back from a 3 month trip to Latin America. I have been able to hold hour long conversations with people in Spanish, which I attribute to the words I've learned from this deck. Even though I have a ~5000 word vocabulary, my listening is still garbage and I have to ask my conversation partner to speak slowly. However, I can pretty much get any message across. If you decide to use this deck, there are some weird 18+ images on here: just a warning.
Next step, lots of listening.
