A misspelling magnet
The generator records 8 spelling variants around duquel (IPA \dy.kɛl\), apronoun. Corpus frequency is #4,665 among 5,307 “D” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 8 likely wrong-spelling variants for duquel, with forms such as "dduquel", "dquuel", and "duqeul". 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 also participates in 1 confusable-pair relationship, "duel", where similar look or sound leads writers to substitute one word for another in context.
Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so any spelling logic here comes from how the word's sounds map to letters, not a documented origin story. The correct French form is duquel, spelled D-U-Q-U-E-L.
