A misspelling magnet

The generator records 18 spelling variants around alphabétique (IPA \al.fa.be.tik\), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #14,845 among 6,727 “A” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Qui est selon l’ordre de l’alphabet.".

Our generated misspelling index lists 18 likely wrong-spelling variants for alphabétique, with forms such as "alhpabétique", "allphabétique", and "alpahbétique". 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 is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, a sign it's visually distinctive enough not to be mixed up with another word.

Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct French form is alphabétique, spelled A-L-P-H-A-B-É-T-I-Q-U-E.
