Spelling & Dictionary Insight

The Portuguese entry for mądry is 5 letters long, classified as an adjective, and transcribed in the International Phonetic Alphabet as /ˈmɔndrɨ/. It sits outside the most-frequent rank tiers, which is often why uncommon words generate more spelling variants per reader. The dominant gloss from Wiktionary reads: "sábio, ajuizado, astuto, prudente".

No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain.
