This is somewhat unrelated, but the 'I guess' vs 'I deem' made me smile, remembering a small technique for english pronounciation I once forced upon myself and still use. When I went to school and had exsams in English, I realised that I had tremendous difficulty in pronouncing the english 'th-sound' in words like 'think', 'thought' and 'through' ect. What I did in practice was replacing that ohh so common phrase: 'I think' with 'I belive' - which I found not only easy to pronounce but also (to me) sounding more true and heartfelt.
