A misspelling magnet

The generator records 12 spelling variants around stehende (IPA [ˈʃteːəndə]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #6,107 among 8,027 “S” headwords. Wiktionary lists 9 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 12 likely wrong-spelling variants for stehende, with forms such as "sethende", "sstehende", and "steehnde". 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 9 confusable-pair relationships, "störende", "stehenden", "steigende", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

Wiktionary doesn't record an etymology for this headword, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct German form is stehende, spelled S-T-E-H-E-N-D-E.
