意思
Valuing something or someone.
文化背景
In Greek business culture, personal reputation (φήμη) is everything. Saying you have someone 'in estimation' is a serious endorsement that can open doors. Greek professors often use this phrase in letters of recommendation to signify that a student has not just good grades, but 'character'. When meeting someone older or of higher status, using this phrase shows you understand social hierarchy and 'philotimo'. Greeks use this to maintain 'prosopo' (face). By affirming respect, you can disagree without causing a permanent rift.
The 'Medal' Rule
Think of this phrase as giving someone a mental medal. You don't give medals for pizza; you give them for bravery or skill.
Don't skip the 'SE'
Saying 'Σε έχω εκτίμηση' sounds like 'I have you estimation'—it's a common learner error that breaks the flow.

The Power of 'Ιδιαίτερη'
Adding 'ιδιαίτερη' (special) before 'εκτίμηση' makes you sound like a native diplomat. Use it for your boss!
