Convict में 'vict' है — victory वाली जीत। मुक़दमे में अभियोजन जीत गया तो आरोपी convict हुआ, यानी दोषी ठहराया गया। इसका उल्टा acquit यानी बरी करना है।

Convict carries 'vict', the same idea of winning found in victory. When the prosecution wins the case, the accused is convicted, that is, found guilty. The opposite is acquit, to declare not guilty.

Exam note

Convict के antonym acquit, exonerate हैं; indict (औपचारिक आरोप लगाना) trap है। Noun CON-vict = क़ैदी, verb con-VICT = दोषी ठहराना।

SSC tests convict against acquit and exonerate (antonyms) and indict (to charge formally, not to find guilty). As a noun, CON-vict is a prisoner; as a verb, con-VICT is to find guilty.
