A misspelling magnet
The generator records 14 spelling variants around multiples (IPA \myl.tipl\), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #2,840 among 5,038 “M” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Pluriel de multiple.".
Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for multiples, with forms such as "mlutiples", "mmultiples", and "mulitples". 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 8 confusable-pair relationships, "mutilés", "multiplie", "multiplex", and more, a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
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 multiples, spelled M-U-L-T-I-P-L-E-S.
