Frequencies come from the OpenSubtitles corpus via hermitdave/FrequencyWords; English meanings and IPA pronunciations from Wiktextract, with eSpeak NG filling in pronunciations Wiktionary lacks. The data is CC BY-SA 4.0, and so is this list — keep the credit if you pass it on. Example sentences come from Tatoeba, CC BY 2.0 FR. The raw data file is here too.

The speaker plays the voice the LangX app uses for that language — synthesised, not a native speaker, so treat it as a guide.

Words stick once you use them

A list gets you the first few hundred. Saying them to someone who speaks English is what makes them stay.
