Spelling & Dictionary Insight
The German entry for regelmäßige is 11 letters long, classified as an adjective, and transcribed in the International Phonetic Alphabet as [ˈʁeːɡl̩ˌmɛːsɪɡə]. It sits outside the most-frequent rank tiers, which is often why uncommon words generate more spelling variants per reader. Wiktionary records 11 distinct senses for this headword, so context determines which meaning a reader should apply.
No misspelling variants are generated for regelmäßige in our index, suggesting the orthography follows predictable German patterns. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.
No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. For readers arriving here from a spelling check, the authoritative guidance is: the correct German form is regelmäßige, spelled R-E-G-E-L-M-Ä-S-S-I-G-E, and any other sequence of those letters, regardless of how natural it feels, is a misspelling in standard orthography.
