Wo “nächstes” in der deutschen Häufigkeit sitzt
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 13 spelling variants around nächstes (IPA [ˈnɛːçstəs]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #2,033 among 1,954 “N” headwords. Wiktionary lists 4 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 13 likely wrong-spelling variants for nächstes, with forms such as "ncähstes", "nnächstes", and "näcchstes". 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 8 confusable-pair relationships, "nachts", "Nächte", "Nächten", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
No borrowing history is documented for this entry, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct German form is nächstes, spelled N-Ä-C-H-S-T-E-S.
