Rare enough to double-check

další is uncommon German outside the top frequency list, classed as anadjective, transcribed [ˈdalʃiː]. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. 2 senses are on record.

další has no tracked misspelling variants, and the word's spelling is regular enough that our generator found nothing worth flagging. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, since no other headword is close enough in sound or shape to pair with it.

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 další, spelled D-A-L-Š-Í.
