Where “blöden” sits in German frequency
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 9 spelling variants around blöden (IPA [ˈbløːdn̩]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #13,110 among 72,680 “B” headwords. Wiktionary lists 12 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 9 likely wrong-spelling variants for blöden, with forms such as "bblöden", "bldöen", and "bllöden". 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 20 confusable-pair relationships, "Bode", "Böen", "Boden", and more, where similar look or sound leads writers to substitute one word for another in context.
This entry carries no recorded etymology, so any spelling logic here comes from how the word's sounds map to letters, not a documented origin story. The correct German form is blöden, spelled B-L-Ö-D-E-N.
