Rare enough to double-check
einmal is uncommon French outside the top frequency list, classed as anadverb, transcribed \ˈaɪ̯nmaːl\. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "Une fois, un, une.".

This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, leaving phoneme-to-grapheme mapping as the best guide to its spelling rather than a borrowing history. The correct French form is einmal, spelled E-I-N-M-A-L.
