Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for annihiler, with forms such as "anihiler", "aninhiler", and "annhiiler". 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.
