A misspelling magnet

The generator records 11 spelling variants around Colorado (IPA [koloˈʁaːdo]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #14,768 among 1,273 “C” headwords. Dominant gloss: "US-Bundesstaat im mittleren Westen der USA".

Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for Colorado, with forms such as "ccolorado", "cloorado", and "collorado". 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 is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.

No borrowing history is documented 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 Colorado, spelled C-O-L-O-R-A-D-O.
