EN: calculation; estimate
Parang 'kalkulasyon' pero mas pang-tita/tito. Ito 'yung "Sa kalkulo ko, aabutin tayo ng siyam-siyam dyan." It implies a mix of math and gut feel, like estimating how many minutes you can be late to a Filipino party before it's considered rude.
From Spanish 'cálculo' (calculation).
ROOT MEANING: to calculate
Very similar to 'kalkulasyon' but can feel slightly more like an estimate or a reasoned guess rather than a precise computation.
