Note
A plural that belongs mainly to one meaning of strategy: the countable plan of action aimed at a goal, as in marketing strategies or negotiation strategies. The uncountable meanings, the art of military command and the activity of strategizing, normally stay singular, so a general studies strategy but devises strategies. The spelling follows the usual consonant-plus-y rule, turning -y into -ies.
