 意

From: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)

 Think v. t. [imp. & p. p. Thought p. pr. & vb. n. Thinking.]
 1. To seem or appear; -- used chiefly in the expressions methinketh or methinks, and methought.
 Note:These are genuine Anglo-Saxon expressions, equivalent to it seems to me, it seemed to me. In these expressions me is in the dative case.
 2. To employ any of the intellectual powers except that of simple perception through the senses; to exercise the higher intellectual faculties.
 For that I am
 I know, because I think.   --Dryden.
 3. Specifically: -- (a) To call anything to mind; to remember; as, I would have sent the books, but I did not think of it.
    Well thought upon; I have it here.   --Shak.
 (b) To reflect upon any subject; to muse; to meditate; to ponder; to consider; to deliberate.

 Note:To think, in a philosophical use as yet somewhat limited, designates the higher intellectual acts, the acts preeminently rational; to judge; to compare; to reason. Thinking is employed by Hamilton as “comprehending all our collective energies.” It is defined by Mansel as “the act of knowing or judging by means of concepts,”by Lotze as “the reaction of the mind on the material supplied by external influences.” See Thought.
 To think better of. See under Better.
 To think much of, or To think well of, to hold in esteem; to esteem highly.
