Our generated misspelling index lists 7 likely wrong-spelling variants for Andes, with forms such as "adnes", "anddes", and "andess".

It also participates in 20 confusable-pair relationships, "años", "ante", "Aves", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
