I'm trying to translate a phrase in English:
Trust must be earned.
A direct translation would look like this:
信任是要赚来的
However, the verb 赚 doesn't seem suitable in this context.
What may be a more suitable word? Specifically, a word that means "earn" but without the "work for money" connotation?
赚(取)
for信任
. It's grammatically and conversationally and formally perfect.
