Our generated misspelling index lists 15 likely wrong-spelling variants for disfigured, with forms such as "ddisfigured", "difsigured", and "disffigured". 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. No close-neighbour confusable shows up for this headword in our dataset, since its spelling is unusual enough that it doesn't cluster with a lookalike.
This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct English form is disfigured, spelled D-I-S-F-I-G-U-R-E-D.
