Valid word

wdth

Incorrect correction

width

Justification

When I test with typos 1.32.0, it flags wdth as a typo and suggests width.

However, wdth is a design-variation axes and the tag in OpenType 1.8 spec, meaning Width. This tag is also widely used by web developers in CSS, for example, with the font-variation-settings property.

Notes

wdth is mostly used in CSS and HTML files. It's not common in general text.

My suggestion is to allow wdth only in files like .css and .html. This way, typos can avoid false positives while still catching real typos in other files.
