Words are noble; they should always be respected and expressed wisely. Words should never be used to vincere, from Latin, meaning ‘to win’, ‘to conquer’, but rather to convincere from Latin, meaning ‘to win’, ‘to conquer’- con ‘with’, ‘together’. This is especially true for a historic period like the one we are living today, with the pandemic and wars all over the world.
