A misspelling magnet

The generator records 10 spelling variants around Bahrain (IPA [ˌbaˈʁaɪ̯n]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #24,253 among 5,818 “B” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for Bahrain, with forms such as "abhrain", "baharin", and "bahhrain". 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 1 confusable-pair relationship, "brain", since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct German form is Bahrain, spelled B-A-H-R-A-I-N.
