Common Mistakes

  • Esto me ayuda rápido a triunfar.

  • Esto me ayuda a la herramienta a triunfar rápido.

    When the thing that helps is a noun, use ‘ayudar con’ instead of ‘ayudar a’.

  • Esto me ayuda a triunfar de rápido.

    Learners sometimes replace it with ‘triunfar de’ which is incorrect; the verb does not take a preposition.

Cultural Tip

The verb triunfar carries a slightly formal or triumphant tone; in everyday conversation many speakers prefer tener éxito or lograr metas. Also, adverbs like rápido normally follow the infinitive, not precede it, so ‘triunfar rápido’ is the natural order.
