A misspelling magnet

Our generated misspelling index lists 7 likely wrong-spelling variants for parrot, with forms such as "aprrot", "parort", and "parot". 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 18 confusable-pair relationships, "part", "prot", "payot", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
Wiktionary doesn't record an etymology for this headword, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct French form is parrot, spelled P-A-R-R-O-T.
