胜

• 拼音: shèng

含义

To win; to defeat; to surpass. Indicates triumph in a competition, battle, or comparison.

A somewhat formal verb for winning or being superior. Often seen in compound words: 胜利 (victory), 胜负 (win or lose), 胜出 (win out). In sports and competitions: 以3比1胜了对方 (won 3-1 against the opponent).
