Is there any difference between 想 and 觉得?
Feb 4, 2009 02:04
guestnana	I came across two sentences: 1. 我觉得你是对的。 2. 我想你是对的。 To my understanding, they both mean the same thing "I think you are right." Am I right? If so, what is the difference between 想 and 觉得? Are they synonyms? Thanks in advance.

GUEST40252	我觉得你是对的 means: I "feel" you are right. Both sentances have exactly the same meaning.

If you want to express the mean of "i think",use "我觉得". 我想=i guess You can use "我想" when you want to express "i guess". “我觉得你是对的”means "in my opinion you are right". “我想你是对的”means "i dont know the right answer ,maybe you are right".
