How it's used

Carries a sense of being won over by someone's competence or moral authority rather than just trusting them blindly. It implies a transition from skepticism or neutrality to a state of genuine respect and reliance. This term is often used in professional or competitive contexts where someone has proven their worth through actions.

Common phrases

sam1心fuk6服hau2口fuk6服

convinced both in heart and speech

Common mistake

Avoid using this to mean simple trust like 相信, as it specifically requires an element of admiration or being convinced by evidence. It is a formal-leaning verb that sounds slightly stiff in very casual, everyday small talk.
