It also participates in 3 confusable-pair relationships, "denkende", "defender", "denkenden", a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.

This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, so its spelling pattern is best understood through pronunciation rather than a traceable origin. The correct German form is denkender, spelled D-E-N-K-E-N-D-E-R.
