No misspelling variants are generated for tiranosaurio rex in our index, suggesting the orthography follows predictable Spanish patterns. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.

No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. For readers arriving here from a spelling check, the authoritative guidance is: the correct Spanish form is tiranosaurio rex, spelled T-I-R-A-N-O-S-A-U-R-I-O- -R-E-X, and any other sequence of those letters, regardless of how natural it feels, is a misspelling in standard orthography.

Definition

  1. 1
    (Tyrannosaurus rex) Dinosaurio carnívoro de grandes dimensiones que vivió a fines del Cretácico. Medía catorce metros de largo, por seis de alto y pesaba unas siete toneladas. Tenía una cabeza pesada con poderosas mandíbulas, patas traseras enormes con afiladas garras y pequeñas patas delanteras con dos dedos. Algunos paleontólogos suponen que era un animal carroñero, porque piensan que era lento. Otros paleontólogos creen que era un cazador que podía desarrollar velocidades de 60 km por hora en cortas distancias.
