List of Spanish words of Germanic origin

This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: The source terms are missing frequently and numerous are falsely attributed to Germanic origin when they are mostly Latin, Greek or Celtic. This page requires serious revision due to unreliable and erroneous content. Please help improve this article if you can. (November 2020) (Learn how and when to remove this message)

This is a list of some Spanish words of Germanic origin.

The list includes words from Visigothic, Frankish, Langobardic, Middle Dutch, Middle High German, Middle Low German, Old English, Old High German, Old Norse, Old Swedish, English, and finally, words which come from Germanic with the specific source unknown.

Some of these words existed in Latin as loanwords from other languages. Some of these words have alternate etymologies and may also appear on a list of Spanish words from a different language. Some words contain non-Germanic elements (see béisbol in the Middle English section). Any form with an asterisk (*) is unattested and therefore hypothetical.
