A misspelling magnet

The generator records 11 spelling variants around Tarragona (IPA [t̪araˈɣ̞ona]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #11,686 among 3,005 “T” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for Tarragona, with forms such as "atrragona", "taragona", and "tarargona". 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. This entry stands alone in our confusable dataset, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.

This entry carries no recorded etymology, so its spelling is best explained by sound-to-letter mapping rather than etymology. The correct Spanish form is Tarragona, spelled T-A-R-R-A-G-O-N-A.
