The meaning of zwingend is for instance tvingande in Swedish.
Zwingen=tvinga is also noedga, förmå, pressa and many other
meanings but övertyga(nde) is not one of them. Tvingande in English is
imperative, not convincing. Oevertyga is convince.
Unfortunately I don't have a German-English dictionary
at hand, but maybe someone on the list has?
