Our generated misspelling index lists 13 likely wrong-spelling variants for kognitive, with forms such as "kgonitive", "kkognitive", and "koggnitive".

It also participates in 1 confusable-pair relationship, "kognitiven", where similar look or sound leads writers to substitute one word for another in context.
