It is the same as "share" on facebook and "re-blog" on blogspot. While on other platform it know as "re-post". And on steemit.com we it "resteem".

I hope this could help you my friend.

Thank you my dear

Hi @born2win! It just simply means reshared.
BTW, you also earn rewards for resteeming / resharing as well as commenting. ;-)

Thank you my dear
