Where do you think? How can I say "where do you think I got this books from?" I am asking because I thought of the structure "откуда ты думаешь, что я получил эти книги?" but that would mean "where do you get the idea that I got this books?" does it not? (If possible, please, provide explanations in English or Spanish). Thanks for your help.

The structure Question word do you think.....? is always translated as Как ты думаешь/вы думаете......? For example, What do you think she is doing now?-Как ты думаешь,что она сейчас делает? When do you think the train arrives?-Как ты думаешь, во сколько прибывает поезд? Where do you think I got this books from?- Как ты думаешь, откуда я взял (достал) эти книги? You can say "получил", but it sounds less natural to my ear.

Okay Mario, if you are only discussing 1 book, you can say or write "this book". If you are discussing more than 1 book, you can say or write "these books". It would help if I knew the INTENT of the question, but; as a general inquiry, your sentence; "Where do you think I got these books from?" Can be expressed as follows: "Where do you think I got these books from?" "Can you guess where I got these books from?" "Is it a mystery where these books came from?" "Where do you think I got these books?" "Isn't it interesting that nobody can figure out where I got these books?" " Can you agree that nobody could ever guess where I got these books?" .
