What it means
A plain-English reading of the word, with the lexicons it draws on — Abbott-Smith, Strong's, and Liddell-Scott-Jones — right below it, in full.
AI Summary
To think, suppose, hold an opinion - used of a person's own subjective judgment about something, often introducing what someone believes, supposes, or imagines to be true or about to happen 124. In wider Greek usage this same sense covers imagining something in a dream or vision, as if one saw or experienced it 3.
To seem, appear, or be reputed - describing how a person or thing appears to others or is commonly regarded, as opposed to a plain statement of fact 1234. This covers being "of repute" or reckoned important, and the phrase "those of repute" for people held in high standing 13.
In an impersonal construction, "it seems to me," the word carries two further shades: it can mean simply to think, giving one's judgment on a matter 1, or it can mean to please, to seem good, used especially for reaching a decision or resolution, as in "it seemed good to us" 13. Strong's likewise records "please" and "be of reputation" among its senses 2.

(< δόκος, opinion, < δέκομαι, Ion, form of δέχ-), [in LXX for טוֹב, נָדַב, etc.;]
SYN. (δοκέω 1.): ἡγέομαι 2, νομίζω2, οἴομαι; ἡ. and ν. properly express belief resting on external proof, ἡ. denoting the more careful judgment; δ. and οἴ. imply a subjective judgment which in the case of οἴ. is based on feeling, in δ. on thought (v. Schmidt, c. 17)
(δοκέω 2.): φαίνομαι; φ., from the standpoint of the object, "expresses how a matter phenomenally shows and presents itself"; δ., from the standpoint of the observer, expresses one's subjective judgment about a matter (v. Tr., Syn., § lxxx; Cremer, 204).
