Senior Member. The phrase should be "in the long run", not term. Long run is a noun meaning a substantial period of time.
Also question is, is there a hyphen in long run?
Long run would make more sense like this: I know it seems difficult now, but these changes will make things better in the long run. Long-term is hyphenated because it's a compound adjective. The long run is not; I'm pretty sure it's a noun phrase.
One may also ask, what does it mean long run? : a relatively long period of time —usually used in the phrase in the long run.
Furthermore, is long run a word?
happening or presented over a long period of time or having a long course of performances: a long-run hit play.
