• Desglose de hanzi: 总 = 心 + 囱 (overall); 计 = 讠+ 十 (calculate/plan)

Significado

Totalizar; sumar en total.

Used in reports, invoices, and statistics to state a final aggregated figure. Unlike 总额 (which is purely a noun), 总计 functions both as a verb (totalling up) and as an adverb meaning 'in total'.
