Häufigkeitslage von Tippfehler-Magnet „Cambridge“
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 14 spelling variants around Cambridge (IPA [ˈkeɪmbɹɪdʒ]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #12,043 among 1,273 “C” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for Cambridge, with forms such as "acmbridge", "cabmridge", and "cambbridge". Each variant is a distinct typo pattern an edit-distance generator flags, typically a doubled-consonant error, a silent-letter drop, or a vowel substitution. Our confusable-pair dataset has no match for it, a sign it's visually distinctive enough not to be mixed up with another word.
This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, 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 Cambridge, spelled C-A-M-B-R-I-D-G-E.
