A misspelling magnet

The generator records 11 spelling variants around graduado (IPA [gɾaˈð̞wað̞o]), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #11,058 among 1,728 “G” headwords. Wiktionary lists 3 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for graduado, with forms such as "garduado", "ggraduado", and "gradaudo". Each of these forms differs from the correct spelling by one small edit: a doubled letter, a dropped silent letter, or a substituted vowel. It also participates in 5 confusable-pair relationships, "gradual", "granado", "graduados", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.

Wiktionary doesn't record an etymology for this headword, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct Spanish form is graduado, spelled G-R-A-D-U-A-D-O.
