Other way to say "I think ~"
I know some words to express ones onion, but I'm unsure when you use them.
What are the differences between those words?
Would you give me some example sentences?
For example;
"I believe"
"I assume"
"I guess"
"I suppose"
”I take"
"I find"
etc...
If there are more useful expressions, please tell me them too :)
*The reason I asked this question is that in my mother tongue all phrases can be translated in a same word.
So I'm eager to know if there are typical cases in which one ("believe" for example) can be used but another ("suppose") can't be :)
