A misspelling magnet

The generator records 9 spelling variants around Nolwenn (IPA \nɔl.wɛn\), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #46,914 among 1,563 “N” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 9 likely wrong-spelling variants for Nolwenn, with forms such as "nlowenn", "nnolwenn", and "nolewnn". 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. Our confusable-pair dataset has no match for it, which typically means the spelling is too distinctive to be mistaken for another word.
