Our generated misspelling index lists 15 likely wrong-spelling variants for propietario, with forms such as "porpietario", "ppropietario", and "proipetario". 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 3 confusable-pair relationships, "propietarios", "proletario", "propietaria", a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
