Able to convince by reasons

Describing ideas, words, or reasons that make people agree with you or do what you want.

用法パターン: [something] is persuasive
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes say *'a persuade argument'* instead of *'a persuasive argument'*. Remember that *persuasive* is an adjective and comes before a noun, while *persuade* is a verb. Learners also confuse *persuasive* with *pushy*: *persuasive* is usually positive or neutral, while *pushy* is negative.
