Definition
Regards with respect and approval; values highly or thinks favorably of; the third-person singular present form of esteem.
Etymology
From Old French 'estimer,' from Latin 'aestimare' meaning 'to value' or 'appraise.' The word has been used since Middle English to indicate respect and high regard.
Kelly Says
Throughout literature, when an author writes that a character 'esteems' another, it conveys a specific kind of respect—not just liking them, but considering them genuinely worthy and valuable as a person!
