Grove Spelling Dictionary: an orchard of misheard words

Field notes

The dictionary organizes nine trees into three groves, with 23, 31, and 23 heard spellings respectively. A tree page supplies its pronunciation, scientific name, and word history, while separate entry pages compare what was heard with what must be written. The site calls the mismatch the “graft point,” and gives “kyoomquat” against “kumquat” as its opening specimen.
