Strategy; comprehensive and long-term planning, especially in military or competitive contexts.

How it's used
Refers specifically to high level, long term planning rather than immediate, tactical moves. While it originates from military contexts, it is now frequently used in corporate and political environments to describe comprehensive roadmaps for success. It carries a sense of gravity and foresight that simpler words like 計劃 or 做法 lack.
Measure word

Their company has formulated a new strategy.
Do you think this strategy has a chance of winning?
Related words
Common mistake
Learners often use this interchangeably with 計劃, but 戰略 implies a much larger scale and a competitive element. Using it to describe a simple daily task or a minor chore sounds overly dramatic and unnatural.
