Our generated misspelling index lists 9 likely wrong-spelling variants for rapport, with forms such as "arpport", "rapoprt", and "raport".

It also participates in 20 confusable-pair relationships, "rappt", "Report", "TO", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
