A misspelling magnet

The generator records 16 spelling variants around simulations (IPA \si.my.la.sjɔ̃\), anoun. Corpus frequency is #21,170 among 6,032 “S” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Pluriel de simulation.".

Our generated misspelling index lists 16 likely wrong-spelling variants for simulations, with forms such as "ismulations", "simluations", and "simmulations". 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 4 confusable-pair relationships, "situations", "stimulation", "stipulations", and more, where similar look or sound leads writers to substitute one word for another in context.

No documented word history exists for this headword, 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 simulations, spelled S-I-M-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S.
