Why Saying 'I Count' Instead of 'I Think' is Misleading
Linguist Svitlana Chernyshova explains why the expression 'I count' is a common mistake in the Ukrainian language. She points out that the verb 'to count' only means to enumerate, while 'to think' should be used to express personal opinions. The frequent use of this phrase is attributed to the influence of the Russian language, where one verb carries multiple meanings.
