Tro eller Tycker


Fre bion: Den hr filmen r bra, tror jag. Efter bion: Den hr filmen var bra, tycker jag. Before a movie, you suppose/believe that the film is good based on what you read and hear. Therefore, tror is used in this case. However, you have your own opinion after watching the film, so tycker is used to express your own view.
