Häufigkeitslage von Tippfehler-Magnet „Artikel“
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 10 spelling variants around Artikel (IPA [ˌaʁˈtiːkl̩]), anoun. Corpus frequency is #484 among 6,976 “A” headwords. Wiktionary lists 4 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for Artikel, with forms such as "aritkel", "arrtikel", and "artiekl". 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 6 confusable-pair relationships, "Artikeln", "Artikels", "Antike", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, 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 Artikel, spelled A-R-T-I-K-E-L.
