A misspelling magnet
The generator records 6 spelling variants around exato (IPA /i.ˈza.tu/), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #4,642 among 1,279 “E” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 6 likely wrong-spelling variants for exato, with forms such as "eaxto", "exaot", and "exatto". Each of these forms differs from the correct spelling by one small edit: a doubled letter, a dropped silent letter, or a substituted vowel. It also participates in 10 confusable-pair relationships, "exit", "êxito", "êxodo", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct Portuguese form is exato, spelled E-X-A-T-O.
