Easy to mix with look-alikes
The spelling risk for also is neighbouring look-alikes ("as", "ao", …), not just typos; it is anadverb pronounced /ˈɔːl.səʊ/. Frequency #21,219 among 7,704 “A” headwords. Gloss: "También.".
Our generated misspelling index lists 3 likely wrong-spelling variants for also, with forms such as "allso", "alsso", and "aslo". 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 20 confusable-pair relationships, "as", "ao", "así", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so its spelling pattern is best understood through pronunciation rather than a traceable origin. The correct Spanish form is also, spelled A-L-S-O.
