Does "Je pense..." mean "I think" and "I'm thinking.."??? Can "Je pense" be considered "I think" and "I'm thinking," or is it conjugated into another verb tense (conditional, future, past etc. etc. there's too many!! =<) to say "I'm thinking.."

Well "pense" is the present indicative (présent de l'indicatif) of "penser" so yes, "Je pense" can mean both "I think" and "I'm thinking". I pretty sure that's right. If I'm wrong, could someone please let us know. =)

"je pense" can mean "I think"or "I'm thinking" We can also use other tense "Je pensais" c'est l'imparfait.
