I kind of like the one at http://www.personal.psu.edu/staff/i/u/iua1/python/apse/ which you might use something like >>> import Apse >>> ap = Apse.Approx('motorcycle', edit=1) >>> ap.match(['motorcycle', 'motorcicle', 'motorscooter']) ['motorcycle', 'motorcicle'] That page mentions several alternatives, as well.
