A misspelling magnet
The generator records 5 spelling variants around OECD (IPA [oːʔeːt͡seːˈdeː]), anabbreviation. Corpus frequency is #15,174 among 1,007 “O” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development; löste 1960 die OEEC - Organisation for European Economic Cooperation (Organisation für europäische wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit) ab, die 19...".
Our generated misspelling index lists 5 likely wrong-spelling variants for OECD, with forms such as "eocd", "oced", and "oeccd". 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 6 confusable-pair relationships, "old", "OFC", "once", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
This entry's etymology isn't recorded, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct German form is OECD, spelled O-E-C-D.
