Разбор по языкам
В родном языке
Opinions are commonly introduced with думать, считать, кажется, or impersonal frames.
Я думаю, что это важно.
I think that this is important.
На изучаемом языке
В английском мнение часто вводят фразами I think, I believe, in my view, it seems to me. Они показывают точку зрения говорящего и могут смягчать утверждение.
I think this is useful.
I think = рамка мнения: говорящий показывает, что это его мысль или оценка, а не нейтральный факт.
Учащиеся могут слишком часто повторять I think или звучать слишком категорично без смягчающих фраз.
Same block, different coding
Both languages use this block strongly, but they signal it differently. Focus on form changes, not only meaning.
