A misspelling magnet

Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for mystisch, with forms such as "mmystisch", "msytisch", and "mysitsch". 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. It also participates in 2 confusable-pair relationships, "mystische", "mystischen", since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, leaving phoneme-to-grapheme mapping as the best guide to its spelling rather than a borrowing history. The correct German form is mystisch, spelled M-Y-S-T-I-S-C-H.
