Definition
确信 (què xìn) means 'to be convinced' or 'to firmly believe' — it expresses a strong personal conviction based on evidence or reasoning. It is less intense than 坚信 (jiān xìn), which implies unwavering faith, and differs from 认定 (rèn dìng), which suggests a conclusion reached after investigation.
