Is robo worth learning now?
robo sits at rank 1,525, past the first thousand words that cover 75.32% of a book on their own. It is a A2 word: worth learning once the commonest thousand are secure, and you will meet it often enough at that point to make it stick.
Frequency is the honest guide to order, not to method. A word learned from a list on its own fades; the same word met inside a sentence you wanted to read stays. Check a Spanish text against the CEFR bands to see whether what you are reading is at your level.
