Our generated misspelling index lists 13 likely wrong-spelling variants for markedly, with forms such as "amrkedly", "makredly", and "marekdly". 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 2 confusable-pair relationships, "Markey", "marked", a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
