Our generated misspelling index lists 17 likely wrong-spelling variants for planétarium, with forms such as "lpanétarium", "palnétarium", and "planetarium". 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 is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which usually means its spelling is distinct enough that readers don't reach for a similar-looking word instead.

Our source data has no etymology on file 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 planétarium, spelled P-L-A-N-É-T-A-R-I-U-M.
