if you know

Great. Now he's making eyes at TheGrobe.

All it tells you is that it fits into their strategy.  Not why it fits into their strategy but it's still more information (that there is a strategy and that the capture of the island fits into it) than the no context version of the sentence which doesn't contain the adjective at all.

I think that without learning to deal with a little bit of ambiguity you're going to end up very hung up on questions like this and lose time that could be much better spent learning other more fundamental aspects of the language.

*fingers crossed*

thank you the grove,but you said that '' all it tells you is that it fits into their strategy.so my question is what is their strategy?.i wait again to your response the grove.

i did what you said borgqueen,but i dont know what im gonna put in the ''game name''.

This is where you need to accept a little bit of ambiguity.  That information simply isn't available in the sentence.  At least you know there is a strategy -- in the sentence without the word "strategic" not even that information is available.

I just took the last hour+ to read through this whole thing. Brilliant! Keep it going - it has been bookmarked ;)

@ PrawnEatsPrawn, Hi John Lennon.

The fact that there is a strategy is revealed by the presence word "strategic" in the sentence.  All I can discern about strategy from that sentence is that whoever said it has one.  I can't tell what it is, that information simply isn't availabe from the sentence alone.

what is the meaning of life?

This thread is a parable for it: persistence in the face of sheer, undeniable futility.

This sounds vaguely like Ecclesiastes.

He who asks shall receive

With just a couple more twists and turns, it could be Job.

thank you the grobe.but i have a last question to you.my question is what is the difference for you about the 2 words,the strategic and the strategy?.i wait again to your response.
