n .
A valuing or rating by the mind ,
without actually measuring ,
weighing ,
or the like ;
rough or approximate calculation ;
as ,
an estimate of the cost of a building ,
or of the quantity of water in a pond .

Syn : {
Estimate }, {
Estimation }, {
Esteem }.
Usage :
The noun estimate ,
like its verb ,
supposes chiefly an exercise of judgment in determining the amount ,
importance ,
or magnitude of things ,
with their other exterior relations ;
as ,
an estimate of expenses incurred ;
a true estimate of life ,
etc .
Esteem is a moral sentiment made up of respect and attachment , --
the valuation of a person as possessing useful qualities or real worth .
Thus we speak of the esteem of the wise and good as a thing greatly to be desired .
Estimation seems to waver between the two .
In our version of the Scriptures it is used simply for estimate ;
as , "
If he be poorer than thy estimation ."
--
Lev .
xxvii .
8 .
In other cases ,
it verges toward esteem ;
as , "
I know him to be of worth and worthy estimation ." --
Shak .
It will probably settle down at last on this latter sense . "
Esteem is the value we place upon some degree of worth .
It is higher than simple approbation ,
which is a decision of judgment .
It is the commencement of affection ." --
Gogan .
[
1913 Webster ]
No ;
dear as freedom is ,
and in my heart '
s Just estimation prized above all price .
