Rare enough to double-check
einimpfen is uncommon German outside the top frequency list, classed as averb, transcribed [ˈaɪ̯nˌʔɪmp͡fn̩]. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "jemandem etwas immer wieder sagen, damit er sich auch danach richtet".
We couldn't generate a plausible misspelling set for einimpfen, 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, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.
No documented word history exists for this headword, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct German form is einimpfen, spelled E-I-N-I-M-P-F-E-N.
