Definition
取胜 (qǔ shèng) is a formal, written verb meaning 'to win, to prevail', often used in contexts like competitions, elections, or strategic situations. It is more literary than the everyday spoken 赢 (yíng) and is typically followed by a complement or used in fixed phrases, not on its own as a simple verb.
