A misspelling magnet

The generator records 12 spelling variants around Xinjiang (IPA \ʃin.jaŋ\), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #30,866 among 62 “X” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Région autonome ouïghoure située au Nord-Ouest de la Chine.".

Our generated misspelling index lists 12 likely wrong-spelling variants for Xinjiang, with forms such as "ixnjiang", "xijniang", and "xinijang". 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, a sign it's visually distinctive enough not to be mixed up with another word.

This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct French form is Xinjiang, spelled X-I-N-J-I-A-N-G.
