A misspelling magnet

The generator records 13 spelling variants around Innsbruck (IPA [ˈɪnsbʁʊk]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #5,853 among 17,725 “I” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Landeshauptstadt von Tirol in Österreich".

Our generated misspelling index lists 13 likely wrong-spelling variants for Innsbruck, with forms such as "innbsruck", "innsbbruck", and "innsbrcuk". Every one of these variants traces to a single-character edit -- an added or dropped letter, a swapped consonant, or a vowel swap -- the kind of slip a spell-checker is built to catch. No close-neighbour confusable shows up for this headword in our dataset, suggesting its spelling stands apart enough that readers rarely confuse it with something else.

Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct German form is Innsbruck, spelled I-N-N-S-B-R-U-C-K.
