A misspelling magnet

The generator records 17 spelling variants around radioaktiven (IPA [ˌʁadi̯oʔakˈtiːvn̩]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #26,579 among 2,984 “R” headwords. Wiktionary lists 12 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 17 likely wrong-spelling variants for radioaktiven, with forms such as "ardioaktiven", "raddioaktiven", and "radiaoktiven". 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 3 confusable-pair relationships, "radioaktiver", "radioaktiv", "radioaktive", a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.

This entry carries no recorded etymology, 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 radioaktiven, spelled R-A-D-I-O-A-K-T-I-V-E-N.
