What do you think to this?

I agree with you.

I agree with you too.

Is it an Americanism?
Have heard it but not very often.
It sounds wrong.

American, of course. Don't get us all started!!

Not American, Northern.
"I don't think much to it" could come straight out of Coronation St.

I must admit that’s what I would say what do you think of this

I agree- we say this up here and don't care what other people think to it!

I think both versions sound ok and could be correct.

Oooh yes I stand corrected! Apologies to all Northerners. I don't and wouldn't say it - I'm happy to hear it in a proper northern accent.

I might say either but I did live in Yorkshire for many years

Well am originally from North Lancs and they don’t say this, must be a Yorkshire thing. No wonder they lost the war of the roses 🤣

Well I ve never lived anywhere near Yorkshire I mEast Anglia and that’s what I would say ‘what do you think of this’ sounds right I think ‘to’ sounds ok as well I might even say ‘what do you think about this’

My apologies to all the Northern grans on GN.

Same here, on both points.

I have never heard what do you think to this, so it must surely be a very localized dialect form.

I was brought up to say either what do you think of this, or about this. In the west of Scotland you can think on something, too. Especially in the usage I was think on what you said, where thinking on conveys that considering theother person's opinion,.

I can't see anything wrong with either form and suspect I've probably used both at different times without ever giving the matter any conscious thought.

I'm from up north and may well have said it at some point.

I also say "What do you think to this?" and "What do you think about this?"

What do you think of this ?
What do you think about this ?
Never heard anyone ask ‘What do you think to this?’

Thank you- I felt I was a voice in the wilderness!

It's Yorkshire but doesn't it perfectly illustrate how it's not always Americanisms or text speak or yoof slang which change language but can be regional stuff spoken locally for years now becoming widespread through social media.

There isn’t much to it ! I’ve heard that
