The generator records 10 spelling variants around sintaxe (IPA /sĩ.ˈta.sɨ/), anoun. Corpus frequency is #22,800 among 1,185 “S” headwords. Wiktionary lists 6 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

Our generated misspelling index lists 10 likely wrong-spelling variants for sintaxe, with forms such as "isntaxe", "sinatxe", and "sinntaxe". Each variant is a distinct typo pattern an edit-distance generator flags, typically a doubled-consonant error, a silent-letter drop, or a vowel substitution. It also participates in 1 confusable-pair relationship, "síntese", a pairing that trips writers up because the two words share enough sound or shape to blur together.
