A misspelling magnet

The generator records 17 spelling variants around vergangenen (IPA [fɛɐ̯ˈɡaŋənən]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #1,831 among 4,163 “V” headwords. Wiktionary lists 20 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 17 likely wrong-spelling variants for vergangenen, with forms such as "evrgangenen", "vegrangenen", and "veragngenen". 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 4 confusable-pair relationships, "vergangener", "vergangenes", "vergangen", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.

No borrowing history is documented for this entry, leaving phoneme-to-grapheme mapping as the best guide to its spelling rather than a borrowing history. The correct German form is vergangenen, spelled V-E-R-G-A-N-G-E-N-E-N.
