文法句型
triumph + over + [opponent/obstacle]
triumph + against + [adversary]
triumph + in + [situation] (without opponent named)
用法筆記
When the opponent or obstacle is named, the verb must be followed by 'over' or 'against' — it never takes a direct object. The most common preposition is 'over'. When no opponent is named, the verb appears alone or with a situation (e.g. 'triumph in the end').
