V1 (base form) is convince, V2 (past simple) is convinced, and V3 (past participle) is convinced. The -ing form is convincing and the he / she / it form is convinces.
It is recorded as a regular verb in this table. Its V2 form is convinced, not convinceed — that is why it is grouped as irregular. The portal rates it hard.
V2 stands alone in the past simple — Convinced at six. V3 is never used on its own: it follows has / have / had in the perfect tenses, and am / is / are / was / were in the passive voice.
It means मनाना, विश्वास दिलाना.
Yes — it is flagged IELTS-relevant on the portal, which means it shows up often in reading and writing tasks. Knowing all five forms matters because IELTS uses the perfect tense and the passive voice heavily.
