Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for flagrante, with forms such as "falgrante", "fflagrante", and "flagarnte". Each variant is a distinct typo pattern an edit-distance generator flags, typically a doubled-consonant error, a silent-letter drop, or a vowel substitution. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which usually means its spelling is distinct enough that readers don't reach for a similar-looking word instead.
