Etymology of CONVINCED

The word "convinced" originated from the Latin word "convincere". "Convincere" is a combination of the prefix "com-" meaning "completely", and the verb "vincere" meaning "to conquer" or "to overpower". In Latin, "convincere" originally had the sense of "to overcome in argument" or "to establish by argument". This meaning was then carried into Old French as "convaincre" and eventually evolved into the modern English word "convince", which means to persuade or make someone believe something. The past participle of "convince" is "convinced", referring to having been persuaded or brought to a belief or opinion.
