It also participates in 20 confusable-pair relationships, "bum", "bula", "bruto", 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 is best explained by sound-to-letter mapping rather than etymology. The correct Spanish form is bruma, spelled B-R-U-M-A.
