Notas de uso
- Use 'ritenere' for opinions or beliefs, not facts. Prefer 'credere' for casual thoughts, 'ritenere' sounds more formal.
- Often followed by 'che' + subjunctive. Mistake: using indicative after 'ritenere'.
- Auxiliary is 'avere' in compound tenses. Past participle 'ritenuto' doesn’t agree with subject.
- present: ritengo, ritieni, ritiene, riteniamo, ritenete, ritengono
