I don�t know what the following sentence means. Could you paraphrase it for me?
We don't know if we can survive with all this competition.

We don't know if we can survive with all this competition.
I think it may mean: we are not sure whether we can win this competition |

Hi.
In business terms, competition is other businesses who are in the same type of business as you are. This sentence would then mean that with all these other businesses offering the same thing we do, we cannot be certain that our business will survive or continue as we might lose customers and money. |
