A misspelling magnet

The generator records 6 spelling variants around voice (IPA [vɔɪs]), anoun. Corpus frequency is #11,999 among 4,163 “V” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 6 likely wrong-spelling variants for voice, with forms such as "ovice", "vioce", and "vocie". 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 16 confusable-pair relationships, "vote", "void", "voip", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.

This entry carries no recorded etymology, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct German form is voice, spelled V-O-I-C-E.
