Frequência do íman ortográfico “random”
A misspelling magnet
The generator records 9 spelling variants around random (IPA /ˈrændəm/), anadjective. Corpus frequency is #22,142 among 963 “R” headwords. Dominant gloss: "aleatório, randômico".
Our generated misspelling index lists 9 likely wrong-spelling variants for random, with forms such as "arndom", "radnom", and "randdom". 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. It also participates in 3 confusable-pair relationships, "rango", "ranço", "rancor", a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
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 random, spelled R-A-N-D-O-M.
