Where “ocorrência” sits in Portuguese frequency
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 12 spelling variants around ocorrência (IPA /ɔ.ku.ˈRẽ.sjɐ/), anoun. Corpus frequency is #5,446 among 846 “O” headwords. Wiktionary lists 4 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 12 likely wrong-spelling variants for ocorrência, with forms such as "coorrência", "occorrência", and "ocorrnêcia". Each of these forms differs from the correct spelling by one small edit: a doubled letter, a dropped silent letter, or a substituted vowel. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which typically means the spelling is too distinctive to be mistaken for another word.
This entry carries no recorded etymology, so spelling patterns must be inferred from the word's phoneme-to-grapheme mapping rather than from a documented borrowing chain. The correct Portuguese form is ocorrência, spelled O-C-O-R-R-Ê-N-C-I-A.
