Old English me tynce "it seems to me," from me (pron.), dative of I, + tynce, third person singular of tyncan "to seem," reflecting the Old English distinction between tyncan "to seem" and related tencan "to think," which bedevils modern students of the language (see think). The two thinks were constantly confused, then finally merged, in Middle English. Related: Methought.
