Häufigkeitslage von Tippfehler-Magnet „analog“
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 8 spelling variants around analog (IPA [anaˈloːk]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #6,624 among 6,976 “A” headwords. Wiktionary lists 3 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 8 likely wrong-spelling variants for analog, with forms such as "aanlog", "analgo", and "anallog". Each of these forms differs from the correct spelling by one small edit: a doubled letter, a dropped silent letter, or a substituted vowel. It also participates in 9 confusable-pair relationships, "Anflug", "Avalon", "analoge", and more, where similar look or sound leads writers to substitute one word for another in context.
This entry carries no recorded etymology, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct German form is analog, spelled A-N-A-L-O-G.
