On utilise cette expression en plaçant methinks en début de phrase et en ajoutant la forme archaïque doth avant le verbe, lorsqu'on estime que quelqu'un proteste trop de son innocence pour être honnête. On se sert souvent de l'expression à propos de l'attitude de personnes de sexe féminin, mais pas exclusivement; ainsi on pourra dire the minister has spoken loudly on the issue, but methinks he doth protest too much ("le ministre a beaucoup parlé du problème, et son insistance même me semble suspecte"). -
