    Estimation is a careful guess at the size, amount, value, or quality of something, without measuring it exactly — "by my estimation, it'll take two hours." The phrase "in my estimation" is a slightly formal way to say "in my opinion" or "in my judgment," especially about someone's worth or ability.

    估計；估算；(in one's estimation)依某人看法
