A misspelling magnet

The generator records 14 spelling variants around Minneapolis, aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #36,960 among 5,038 “M” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Ville américaine dans le Minnesota.".

Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for Minneapolis, with forms such as "imnneapolis", "mineapolis", and "minenapolis". 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. This entry stands alone in our confusable dataset, a sign it's visually distinctive enough not to be mixed up with another word.

No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct French form is Minneapolis, spelled M-I-N-N-E-A-P-O-L-I-S.
