Morphology
The adjective 'strong' (powerful, intense) combined with 'relationship' (a connection between people or groups) yields a directly compositional meaning of a firm or close connection; a B1 learner who knows both words can readily infer this sense. This pattern (e.g., Spanish 'relación fuerte', French 'relation forte') is cross-linguistically common, supporting immediate transparency.
Etymology
The phrase strong relationship gives the picture of two people joined by a thick rope or a firm bridge: strong means not easy to break and relationship is the link between them. That's why it means a 'close' and 'trusting' connection that lasts.
