A misspelling magnet

The generator records 13 spelling variants around insensato (IPA /ĩ.sẽ.ˈsa.tu/), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #31,009 among 938 “I” headwords. Dominant gloss: "não sensato; em que há falta de sensatez".

Our generated misspelling index lists 13 likely wrong-spelling variants for insensato, with forms such as "inesnsato", "innsensato", and "insenasto". 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. Our confusable-pair dataset has no match for it, since its spelling is unusual enough that it doesn't cluster with a lookalike.

This headword's origin isn't recorded in our source data, so its spelling pattern is best understood through pronunciation rather than a traceable origin. The correct Portuguese form is insensato, spelled I-N-S-E-N-S-A-T-O.
