– triumph- 勝利

今は閉館している図書館でよく読んでいた本にtriumphという言葉が何度も出てきていた。

調べると勝利って言う意味。だけど、victoryと何が違うんだ?

To triumph means to have a victory which emphasizes winning. Conquering is also emerging victorious but it’s more  about beating someone.

 For example if you were to get perfect grades, then you would triumph over your classmates. Victory would be like you conquered somebody in a sport or even a war.

おぉ、勉強で勝ったらtriumphで、スポーツで勝ったらvictoryってこと?
