Compelling is usually used before a noun and leaves no room for any doubt that sth is true. * compelling比convincing語氣稍強。可以用seem/sound/look convincing(似乎/聽起來/看上去有說服力)句式,暗示事物也許和看上去不太一樣。compelling通常用於名詞前,強調事物的真確性不容置疑。■persuasivepəˈsweɪsɪv; NAmEpərˈsweɪsɪv(of an argument, reason, etc. or a person) able to persuade sb to believe or do sth(論據、理由等或人)有說服力的,令人信服的◆Advertising relies heavily on the persuasive power of imagery.廣告很大程度上靠的是圖像的說服力。◆He can be very persuasive.他有時很會說服人。▸persuasively
