'Long term' and 'Long run'
I still cannot understand the difference. I have this list of words:
-plans
-costs
-unemployment
-capital gain
-profits in the
-relationship
-effects of smoking
-bonds
-the best solution in the
-consequences of migration in the
-care for the seriously ill
-effects of the drug
-investment
I have to match each of these phrases with "long term" or "long run"
The answers are all match with "long term" except for those phrases which have "in the".
Is this correct?
