Rare enough to double-check
quirilieren is uncommon German outside the top frequency list, classed as averb, transcribed [kviʁiˈliːʁən]. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "eine Reihe aufeinanderfolgender harmonischer Töne von sich geben".
quirilieren has no tracked misspelling variants, suggesting the orthography follows predictable German patterns. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, since no other headword is close enough in sound or shape to pair with it.
Wiktionary doesn't record an etymology for this headword, 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 quirilieren, spelled Q-U-I-R-I-L-I-E-R-E-N.
