I have found a few expressions which can replace the phrase "I think", here they are: (This is the correct word order)
In my book
To my mind

From my point of view/viewpoint (From is the correct preposition here.) |
Hi Jupiter
First a small correction:
When you use the word point, you need the preposition from.
Here are some more phrases that can be used to give an opinion:
- In my view (not viewpoint!)
- To my way of thinking
- In my opinion
- As I see it
- It seems to me (that)
- I'd say (that)
- There's no doubt in my mind (that)
- I'm absolutely convinced (that)
Of course, the last two phrases indicate a much stronger opinion than others. The others introduce an opinion in a more "neutral" way. ;)

You could also say "My two cents is (that)..."
"My two cents" = my (humble) opinion.
This is frequently used to soften an opinion.

Hi Amy :D
Thanks a lot for your two cents but you know it's worth more than $2,000,000 from my point of view :wink:
Thanks again
