Easy to mix with look-alikes
The spelling risk for Siam is neighbouring look-alikes ("sin", "sir", …), not just typos; it is aproper noun pronounced [ˈsjãm]. Frequency #34,344 among 4,169 “S” headwords. Gloss: "El nombre antiguo de Tailandia m".
Our generated misspelling index lists 3 likely wrong-spelling variants for Siam, with forms such as "isam", "siamm", and "ssiam". Every one of these variants traces to a single-character edit -- an added or dropped letter, a swapped consonant, or a vowel swap -- the kind of slip a spell-checker is built to catch. It also participates in 20 confusable-pair relationships, "sin", "sir", "sic", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, leaving phoneme-to-grapheme mapping as the best guide to its spelling rather than a borrowing history. The correct Spanish form is Siam, spelled S-I-A-M.
