Jag är tveksam till "I understood".

Just because it's in past? "Vettem" and "Értettem" also in past, but they primarily mean in conversation "I understand."

Would you accept "I understood" as synonymous to "I understand"?

Cabo Cabo January 4, 2021 January 4, 2021 at 8:57:18 AM UTC link Permalink

I assume, in some context they are the same.
Here, some discussion, but not everybody is in the same opinion:
https://www.quora.com/What-is-t...esent%20tense.
Here, one of them says that 'understood' is used as an answer for understanding a command:
https://hinative.com/en-US/questions/7717

May one of the native English speaker had a conversation about this before, but I didn't find the comment.

@AlanF_US
Can you tell us the differences and similarities between 'I understand' and 'I understood'?

AlanF_US AlanF_US January 4, 2021 January 4, 2021 at 11:44:13 PM UTC link Permalink

"I understood" could suggest "I understood that already, so there was no need to explain it." "I understand" would be the more common statement.
