Methinks
methinks
- O.E. me юyncр "it seems to me," from me, dat. of I, + юyncр, third pers. sing. of юyncan "to seem," reflecting the O.E. distinction between юyncan "to seem" and related юencan "to think," which bedevils modern students of the language. The two words were constantly confused, then finally merged, in M.E.
