Q

Убеждать, уговаривать 
to make someone agree to do something by talking to them a lot about it 

A

persuade

Слова “persuade” и “convince” в английском языке (США) имеют схожие значения, но отличаются в нюансах.

“Persuade” означает убеждать или уговаривать кого-то сделать что-то или принять определенную точку зрения. Это подразумевает использование аргументов, логики или эмоций для воздействия на человека. Когда вы пытаетесь убедить кого-то, вы стараетесь изменить его мнение или действия.

Примеры использования “persuade”:

  1. Я пытался убедить своего друга пойти на вечеринку.
  2. Она убеждала своих родителей позволить ей поехать в путешествие.

“Convince” также означает убеждать, но с фокусом на установление уверенности или убежденности в чем-то.да вы убеждаете кого-то, вы стараетесь убедить его в правильности или истинности чего-то.

Примеры использования “convince”:

  1. Я убедил своего начальника, что это нововведение будет полезным для компании.
  2. Он убедил меня в том, что это лучший выбор для нашей поездки.

В обоих случаях, “persuade” и “convince” подразумевают воздействие на мысли или действия других людей, но “persuade” больше связано с уговорами и аргументами, а “convince” с установлением уверенности или убежденности
