Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the word frequency for all thirty letters of the Croatian alphabet and to collect normative data for the letter fluency task in Croatian speakers. Ninety two healthy participants were given each of the Croatian letters, and asked to generate as many words as possible in 60 seconds for each letter. Results suggested that participants generated most frequently words starting with the letters as follows: »K«, »P«, »S« and »M«.
