A misspelling magnet

The generator records 20 spelling variants around extraterrestre, anadjective. Corpus frequency is #22,976 among 1,279 “E” headwords. Dominant gloss: "que se produz fora do planeta Terra".

Our generated misspelling index lists 20 likely wrong-spelling variants for extraterrestre, with forms such as "etxraterrestre", "exrtaterrestre", and "extarterrestre". 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. This entry stands alone in our confusable dataset, since no other headword is close enough in sound or shape to pair with it.

No borrowing history is documented for this entry, so its spelling is best explained by sound-to-letter mapping rather than etymology. The correct Portuguese form is extraterrestre, spelled E-X-T-R-A-T-E-R-R-E-S-T-R-E.
