Hallo .

Ich habe eine Frage . 
For 'let me think' ...Mal überlegen, can we use 'Mal denken ' also ?

Hallo VidyaMS,

another way of saying "Mal überlegen..." - "Let me think..."  would be "Mal nachdenken..." or "Lass mich (mal) nachdenken."

Viele Grüße

What is the meaning of 'Lass' in the sentence -  Lass mich nachdenken ?

Hallo VidyaMS,

"Lass" comes from the verb "lassen" which means "to let". It's quite common in German to omit "lass" and "mich" in "Lass mich mal überlegen/nachdenken."- "Let me think."

Tschüss!
