General guesses:
* అంచనా వేయడం (anchaana veyadam): This literally means "to estimate," but it's commonly used for making guesses.
* ఊహించడం (oohinchadam): This means "to imagine" or "to speculate."
* అనుమానం (anumaanam): This means "suspicion" or "doubt," but can also imply a guess.
* తలచుకోవడం (talachukovaadam): This means "to think" or "to consider," and can be used to express a guess.
For guessing numbers or quantities:
* అంచనా (anchaana): This means "estimate."
* గెస్ (ges): This is the English word "guess" borrowed into Telugu.
For guessing something specific:
* గెస్ చేయడం (ges cheyadam): This means "to guess" and is used for specific guesses.
* ఏమో అని అనుకోవడం (emo ani anukovaadam): This means "to think that maybe" and is used for guessing something uncertain.
The best word to use depends on the context.
For example, if you're asking someone to guess a number, you could say "అంచనా వేయండి" (anchaana veyandi).
If you're trying to guess what someone is thinking, you could say "ఏమో అని అనుకుంటున్నాను" (emo ani anukuntunnaanu).
