It also participates in 4 confusable-pair relationships, "Urano", "usando", "urbano", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.

Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct Spanish form is uranio, spelled U-R-A-N-I-O.
