Rare enough to double-check
erträglich is uncommon French outside the top frequency list, classed as anadjective, transcribed \ɛɐ̯ˈtʁɛːklɪç\. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "Supportable.".
erträglich doesn't appear in our generated misspelling index, and the word's spelling is regular enough that our generator found nothing worth flagging. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which typically means the spelling is too distinctive to be mistaken for another word.
This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, so its spelling is best explained by sound-to-letter mapping rather than etymology. The correct French form is erträglich, spelled E-R-T-R-Ä-G-L-I-C-H.
