A misspelling magnet

Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for gehörte, with forms such as "eghörte", "gehhörte", and "gehröte".

It also participates in 18 confusable-pair relationships, "George", "gelobte", "geortet", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
