Reckon Meaning in English
word
释义
To think, believe, or guess that something is true. It can also mean to calculate an amount, and it is especially common in informal spoken English in some regions.
用法与细微差别
Often informal and somewhat regional, especially common in British, Australian, and Southern American English. Patterns include 'reckon (that)...', 'be reckoned to be', and older/more literal uses about numbers or costs. Learners often confuse it with only 'calculate', but in everyday speech it very often means simply 'think'.
