The word for today is…

opine (verb):  
: to express opinions: to state as an opinion

Source : [Merriam -Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/opine?ref=goodoil.news)

Etymology : Opine is not a back-formation of opinion. Both words come from Middle French opiner, meaning “to express one’s opinion,” and Latin opinari, “to have in mind” or “to think.” And they were thought up as words for the English language independently at different times.
