略
lüè
brief; sketchy
outline; summary; to omit; (bound form before a single-character verb) a bit; somewhat; slightly; plan; strategy; to capture (territory); variant of 略[lu:e4]
field (田) + [sound] (各) = sketch a plan, take territory
各 mainly serves a phonetic role here. The field radical 田 anchors the core sense: measuring and dividing land underlies both 'strategy' (a plan to take territory) and 'outline' (a rough sketch of something larger).
