Rare enough to double-check
keine is uncommon French outside the top frequency list, classed as anadjective, transcribed \ˈkaɪ̯nə\. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "Féminin (accusatif ou nominatif) ou pluriel (accusatif ou nominatif) de kein.".
keine has no tracked misspelling variants, since its letter pattern doesn't lend itself to common typo substitutions. No close-neighbour confusable shows up for this headword in our dataset, suggesting its spelling stands apart enough that readers rarely confuse it with something else.
This entry carries no recorded etymology, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct French form is keine, spelled K-E-I-N-E.
