Guessing has a very mild implication of thought or estimation from a model of understanding of the subject in question.

Hallucination, on the other hand, is evocative of a less reasonable/rational source.




That would actually be an educated guess or a guesstimate. A guess is as good as any.


Maybe strictly definitionally, but comparing the connotations of the two, I assume people don't actually truly randomly guess.
