用法
- To fight/compete fiercely for something - 争夺冠军 (zhēngduó guànjūn) to vie for the championship; 争夺市场 (zhēngduó shìchǎng) to fight over market share.
- 夺 = to seize, so it's an active struggle to grab a prize, territory, or resource from rivals.
- Stronger and more contested than 争取 (zhēngqǔ), 'to strive for/win over' (which lacks the sense of snatching from an opponent).
