A misspelling magnet

The generator records 14 spelling variants around Nachtruhe (IPA [ˈnaxtˌʁuːə]), anoun. Corpus frequency is #30,698 among 1,954 “N” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for Nachtruhe, with forms such as "anchtruhe", "nacchtruhe", and "nachhtruhe". 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. Our confusable-pair dataset has no match for it, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.

Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so any spelling logic here comes from how the word's sounds map to letters, not a documented origin story. The correct German form is Nachtruhe, spelled N-A-C-H-T-R-U-H-E.
