 (a.)使人信服的,有力的,令人心悅誠服的

 Con·vince v. t. [imp. & p. p. Convinced p. pr. & vb. n. Convincing.]
 1. To overpower; to overcome; to subdue or master. [Obs.]
 His two chamberlains
 Will I with wine and wassail so convince
 That memory, the warder of the brain,
 Shall be a fume.   --Shak.
 2. To overcome by argument; to force to yield assent to truth; to satisfy by proof.
    Such convincing proofs and assurances of it as might enable them to convince others.   --Atterbury.
 3. To confute; to prove the fallacy of. [Obs.]

 4. To prove guilty; to convict. [Obs.]
    Which of you convinceth me of sin?   --John viii. 46.

 Syn: -- To persuade; satisfy; convict.
 Usage: -- To Convince, persuade. To convince is an act of the understanding; to persuade, of the will or feelings. The one is effected by argument, the other by motives. There are cases, however, in which persuade may seem to be used in reference only to the assent of the understanding; as when we say, I am persuaded it is so; I can not persuade myself of the fact. But in such instances there is usually or always a degree of awakened feeling which has had its share in producing the assent of the understanding.
