YOU SAID:
i think my cat is on fire
INTO JAPANESE
私の猫は火がついていると思う
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I think that my cat is on fire
INTO JAPANESE
私の猫は燃えていると思います
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I think my cat is burning
INTO JAPANESE
私の猫は燃えていると思います
BACK INTO ENGLISH
I think my cat is burning
That didn't even make that much sense in English.
