Usage Note

Convencido is the past participle of convencer used as an adjective. It typically follows estar — estoy convencido de que... ('I am convinced that...'). As a prenominal modifier it can signal ideological commitment: un convencido socialista ('a committed socialist'). Do not use ser convencido, which would imply a permanent trait.
