A misspelling magnet
The generator records 10 spelling variants around Houston (IPA [ˈowst̪õn]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #9,839 among 1,569 “H” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Ciudad del Estado de Texas, Estados Unidos.".
Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for Houston, with forms such as "hhouston", "hosuton", and "housotn". 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 is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, since no other headword is close enough in sound or shape to pair with it.
This entry carries no recorded etymology, leaving phoneme-to-grapheme mapping as the best guide to its spelling rather than a borrowing history. The correct Spanish form is Houston, spelled H-O-U-S-T-O-N.
