A misspelling magnet
The generator records 7 spelling variants around álbum (IPA /ˈaɫ.bũ/), anoun. Corpus frequency is #1,595 among 25 “Á” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 7 likely wrong-spelling variants for álbum, with forms such as "lábum", "áblum", and "álbbum". 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, "atum", "algum", "alguém", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so any spelling logic here comes from how the word's sounds map to letters, not a documented origin story. The correct Portuguese form is álbum, spelled Á-L-B-U-M.
