A misspelling magnet

The generator records 14 spelling variants around höfischen (IPA [ˈhøːfɪʃn̩]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #49,792 among 3,372 “H” headwords. Wiktionary lists 12 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for höfischen, with forms such as "hföischen", "hhöfischen", and "höffischen". 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 1 confusable-pair relationship, "Höschen", since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so its spelling is best explained by sound-to-letter mapping rather than etymology. The correct German form is höfischen, spelled H-Ö-F-I-S-C-H-E-N.
