Explanation

觉 means 'to sense/feel' and 得 (neutral tone, read de) attaches to it. 觉得 introduces a personal opinion or subjective feeling — a soft, everyday 'I feel / I think'. It is the most common and casual of the 'think' verbs, used for impressions, tastes and mild judgements. It can be followed by a clause (我觉得很好) or a whole sentence.

Examples

我 觉得 这样很好。
wǒ juéde zhèyàng hěn hǎo.
I think this is good.
你 觉得 怎么样？
nǐ juéde zěnmeyàng?
What do you think?

Note

得 is neutral tone (juéde). Softer and more casual than 认为.
