Usage notes

  • Use strategico for plans, positions, sectors, or choices. For a person’s skill at planning, stratega is often more natural than strategico.
  • It agrees in gender and number: strategico, strategica, strategici, strategiche. Learners often forget the feminine and plural forms.
  • Very common in business, politics, and military contexts. In casual speech, importante or fondamentale may sound less formal or less buzzword-like.
