Portuguese term or phrase: refletida por razões estimáveis
Another phrase from the paper on Brazil's image abroad etc.
does the last bit read, ".. as Brazil's image will be reflected through/by computable (or estimable?) reasons"? Whatever that means???

Adicionalmente, este tema se acomoda em narrativa teórica que precisa ser limitada em termos locais, temporais e situacionais (FLICK, 2009), uma vez que a imagem do Brasil será refletida por razões estimáveis

neutral  kashew: Hi. Two different interpretations for estimable as you point out. Is it worthy that's intended here?
5 hrs
  -> Certainly not "computable". The context is about "Brazil's" image.
