English Language & Usage Asked by mb_dc2008 on August 25, 2021
Does context have a role to play in determining which is used?
Ie: upon research I’ve found that various sport-news outlets tend use “win streak” more often…
My example: “…build a win/winning streak” — in an internet application context.
It appears to be a less common variant than winning streak:
A winning streak, a.k.a. a win streak or hot streak, is an uninterrupted sequence of success in games or competitions, commonly measured by wins that are uninterrupted by losses or ties/draws. In sports, it can be applied to teams, and individuals.
