Our generated misspelling index lists 16 likely wrong-spelling variants for estratagema, with forms such as "esrtatagema", "esstratagema", and "estartagema".

It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which tends to mean the word is visually distinctive enough to stand on its own.
