A misspelling magnet

The generator records 19 spelling variants around ordentlichen (IPA [ˈɔʁdn̩tlɪçn̩]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #7,373 among 1,007 “O” headwords. Wiktionary lists 12 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 19 likely wrong-spelling variants for ordentlichen, with forms such as "odrentlichen", "orddentlichen", and "ordenltichen". 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 5 confusable-pair relationships, "ordentliches", "ordentlicher", "ordentlich", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

Our source data has no etymology on file 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 ordentlichen, spelled O-R-D-E-N-T-L-I-C-H-E-N.
