Häufigkeitslage von Tippfehler-Magnet „angetan“
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 10 spelling variants around angetan (IPA [ˈanɡəˌtaːn]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #7,569 among 6,976 “A” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for angetan, with forms such as "agnetan", "anegtan", and "angeatn". Every one of these variants traces to a single-character edit -- an added or dropped letter, a swapped consonant, or a vowel swap -- the kind of slip a spell-checker is built to catch. It also participates in 7 confusable-pair relationships, "Ängsten", "Angela", "angeln", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
This entry's etymology isn't recorded, 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 angetan, spelled A-N-G-E-T-A-N.
