A misspelling magnet
The generator records 16 spelling variants around berechtigt (IPA [bəˈʁɛçtɪçt]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #4,410 among 5,818 “B” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 16 likely wrong-spelling variants for berechtigt, with forms such as "bberechtigt", "beerchtigt", and "bercehtigt".

It also participates in 10 confusable-pair relationships, "besichtigt", "bezichtigt", "berüchtigt", 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, leaving phoneme-to-grapheme mapping as the best guide to its spelling rather than a borrowing history. The correct German form is berechtigt, spelled B-E-R-E-C-H-T-I-G-T.
