A misspelling magnet

The generator records 12 spelling variants around bestellte (IPA [bəˈʃtɛltə]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #13,561 among 5,818 “B” headwords. Wiktionary lists 9 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 12 likely wrong-spelling variants for bestellte, with forms such as "bbestellte", "besetllte", and "besstellte". 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 6 confusable-pair relationships, "bestellten", "bestell", "bestellt", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

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 bestellte, spelled B-E-S-T-E-L-L-T-E.
