A misspelling magnet
The generator records 14 spelling variants around flagrante (IPA /flɐ.ˈɡɾɐ̃.tɨ/), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #9,192 among 853 “F” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
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.
No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct Portuguese form is flagrante, spelled F-L-A-G-R-A-N-T-E.
