A misspelling magnet
The generator records 10 spelling variants around notable (IPA \nɔ.tabl\), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #8,586 among 1,563 “N” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for notable, with forms such as "nnotable", "noatble", and "notabble". Each of these forms differs from the correct spelling by one small edit: a doubled letter, a dropped silent letter, or a substituted vowel. It also participates in 4 confusable-pair relationships, "notaire", "notables", "noble", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
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 notable, spelled N-O-T-A-B-L-E.
