borogrove

Listed as an alt form, how can a nonce have an alt form? At best this is a misspelling. - TheDaveRoss 19:49, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

It is, nevertheless, a common ([1][2]) misspelling (presumably influenced by mangrove).  --Lambiam 23:04, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

I thought it had an r in it too until now, to be honest. :) —Rua (mew) 16:26, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

Keep - common misspelling.-Sonofcawdrey (talk) 23:53, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

• Keep: looks like an alternative form per borogrove, borogove at the Google Books Ngram Viewer. (WT:CFI#Spellings). Let us recall we do not keep nonce words as nonces since we require 3 independent uses per WT:ATTEST. --Dan Polansky (talk) 08:31, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
