Hi! I am a college student who is passionate about learning languages (native-English)! I was very advanced in Spanish, but I lost my ability due to lack of use. I would like to pick it back up, but in the meantime, I am loving learning German! It is a new passion! I have also picked up (very little) Hungarian.

    You are correct. "You'd think" is used like "contrary to your expectations." "You'd think" is slang for "you would have thought."

    "It" is a pronoun, while "this" and "that" are adjectives. To me (native English speaker). You can use them pretty interchangeablely. "This" and "That" add more emphasis, more flavor, to the sentence. It also is more specific than "it."

    But here is how you would use them appropriately.

    This and That describe a noun:

    Example: This table. That chair.

    You also can use "this" and "that" to show how close something is:

    Example:

    This table right here is green.

    That chair over there is yellow.

    "It" is a personal pronoun (3rd perosn singular).

    It can be used as a subject or an object. It can also stand alone becuase it is a noun.

    Example:

    It is green.

    It is yellow.
