To know if a word in Spanish or Spanish exists or is correct, as well as to know its synonyms, its gender, its definition and much more, it is best to go to the RAE. Thus, if we look for the word "excellent", written with x and c, in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) we will see that this word exists and written thus is correct .

Specifically, in this dictionary we can see that it is a word that comes from the Latin excellens and its plural is "excellent", because when you end in a vowel you only have to add the final s. It is an adjective and, according to the RAE, the meaning of the word "excellent" is something that stands out for its optimal qualities or characteristics or treatment of dignity. Likewise, it is also a masculine noun, since it is a gold coin that was coined by the Catholic Monarchs and was equivalent to doubling it.

Some of the most used synonyms for "excellent" are:

* Excellent

To know if this other way of writing this word, that is, without the letter c after the x, we must also address the DRAE or Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy.

* Excellent

Another way that many people tend to doubt is * escelente, that is, instead of writing an x use an s, since in some Spanish-speaking countries these two letters are pronounced the same or very similar.
