reckon

I think like this about something: X

I think like this because I know some things about it. Before now, I thought about it for some time.

I don’t say “I know it.'

Maybe it is not like this.

'Reckon' flags that something is opinion and not fact.

"My brother has just bought a house, I reckon he'll be engaged by Christmas too."

"Does the G20 summit really make a difference? World leaders reckon it does."
