Häufigkeitslage von Tippfehler-Magnet „experimental“
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 18 spelling variants around experimental (IPA [ɛkspeʁimɛnˈtaːl]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #48,129 among 4,632 “E” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 18 likely wrong-spelling variants for experimental, with forms such as "epxerimental", "exeprimental", and "expeirmental". 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 also participates in 5 confusable-pair relationships, "Experimente", "experiments", "Experimenten", and more, 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 is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct German form is experimental, spelled E-X-P-E-R-I-M-E-N-T-A-L.
