Frequency seat of misspelling magnet “yesterday's”
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 17 spelling variants around yesterday's, anadjective. Corpus frequency is #12,719 among 366 “Y” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Of or relating to yesterday. (This entry is a translation hub.)".
Our generated misspelling index lists 17 likely wrong-spelling variants for yesterday's, with forms such as "eysterday's", "yesetrday's", and "yessterday's". 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, "yesterdays", "yesterday", 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 any spelling logic here comes from how the word's sounds map to letters, not a documented origin story. The correct English form is yesterday's, spelled Y-E-S-T-E-R-D-A-Y-'-S.
