Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for arrefecer, with forms such as "arefecer", "arerfecer", and "arreefcer". 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 tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.
This entry carries no recorded etymology, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct Portuguese form is arrefecer, spelled A-R-R-E-F-E-C-E-R.
