Search-giant and our digital overlords Google recently analyzed their search data on the site for misspellings broken down by state, publishing a data visualization of the top misspelled word in each one. With some rather embarrassing entries on the list (looking at you Arizona/New Hampshire and "diarrhea", or Arkansas and "leprechaun"), New York's word is quite tame and pleasant.
