A misspelling magnet

The generator records 15 spelling variants around percentual, anadjective. Corpus frequency is #12,124 among 3,113 “P” headwords. Dominant gloss: "relativo a percentagem".

Our generated misspelling index lists 15 likely wrong-spelling variants for percentual, with forms such as "eprcentual", "pecrentual", and "perccentual". 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 dataset records no confusable match here, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.
