Difference between “Say” and “Think”
The Say Block
The “Say” block is used to show what the Sprite is saying.
A Dialogue Box like thishttps://cdncreaticodecom.b-cdn.net/scratch-gui-projects/forum/81d3efdc-65e9-418a-8a1b-a90e53e1d06e.PNG" width="90" style=""> appears with the Sprite when you click on the Say block.

The Think Block
The “Think” block is used to show what the Sprite is thinking.
A Thinking Cloud like thishttps://cdncreaticodecom.b-cdn.net/scratch-gui-projects/forum/e1952718-2571-4934-b9da-f8643100b128.PNG" width="90" style=""> appears with the Sprite when you click on the Think block.

How to Clear the Speech Bubble?
To clear the Speech bubble (Dialogue box/ Thinking cloud) from the stage, you have to use an empty “Say” or “Think” block.
Here is how it works;

Say or Think for Some Seconds
The “Say for Seconds” and “Think for Seconds” blocks show the sprite saying or thinking, for some seconds only.

The sprite cannot Say and Think at the same Time
The Sprites cannot say and think at the same time. So if you play the “Say” block after “Think” block, it will replace the Thinking cloud with a Dialogue box.
