Mark Yong 26 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Is it 正義常存 or 正義長存? And is it 馬到成功 or 馬到功成? It's interesting how in both cases, those who are familiar with one version will swear the other is either non-existent or incorrect. But I can tell you, for each of the two phrases, I have seen both versions with almost-equal frequency - in Chinese and Vietnamese (Chu-Nom and Quoc-Ngu). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
semantic nuance 118 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 It's 正義長存。 It's 馬到成功 we use in Taiwan. Hope it helps! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
